Seen a few topics on Micron X - was about to order a set of R3's, but the Microns look just as good for less?

Not bothered about cult status - which would you spend your money on?

I've owned the R3's I found them good and reliable, 3 thing's I wasn't keen on, 1, you can set them for sensitivity but as soon as it bleeps it goes to max sensitivity and a liner can sound like a full blown run. 2, no different drop back tone and 3 the receiver LED's are quite dim.
The new Fox Mini Micron X, only seen the non receiver ones, which looked ok. The Micron X have a drop back tone, true run detection thing, I think Fox have nailed this, not sure about the receiver LED's. The spec looks better for the the money.
I'm thinking of getting a set and selling my RX'S lol
