Owned the previous generation Advantium. Once it played out, waited patiently the couple months it took to get this model. This version is almost identical feature wise to the 2013 model it replaced, with updated external characteristics. Which in my opinion look way better. Unit looks sleeker and more modern. Only thing I miss from previous generation is the clock which now does not continuously display (displays for approx 5 seconds after use and then goes dark). Researching online I found the continuous clock display feature was removed for energy savings. Guess that is what a watch is for!
