The grasp is slightly more rounded and with a touch more roughness, which makes it more pleasant to the touch. Moreover, no differences were found many more outside. Pantallón has a 3 inch for data visualization, histograms, photographs, menus, ... that far exceeds that of their competitors in the segment and much brighter than the D200.
