Helix syn or helix classic?

Planning to start out with one of these two and move up later.

Classic:

* Pros: $15 cheaper, supposedly easier to clean/retains less smell, potentially more aggressive on the prostate

Syn:

* Pros: Looks a bit better(imo), more comfortable, P-tab less annoying, maybe has design improvements

I’m having trouble deciding if the improvements are actually improvements or if the classic had it right and the syn has unnecessary changes. I realize that at the end of the day they are nearly identical so I’m not expecting a world of a difference, but if anyone has tried out both of them, could you share your experiences on which one you think it better?

As it stands, I’m leaning more towards the syn because it looks more luxurious.

Also, lube recommendations? I was thinking sliquid sassy?
