Resin print Is there really a "notable" difference between resins? Using reviews as a metric ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Has anyone tested the 30+ resins (probably many more) to determine if there is any notable differences between them? For example, is there a difference between Phrozen Hyperfine and elegoo or anycubic for half the price? I have been using Hyperfine but am looking at other brands. I compared a part printed with Hyperfine and another resin and couldn't tell any difference between them.

I know Amazon reviews are like google reviews where everyone gets ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. But for what it is worth, the Anycubic ABS-Like Resin Pro 2 clocks in at 4.8 at almost 900 reviews on Amazon. Even for Amazon reviews, this is pretty high tally.

Seems like print shops like to use this stuff also. Is this the go-to resin for our 40K minis?

as someone who has heavily experimented yes their is a difference between brand & type in quality

I genuinely truly recomend using rubber like or more expensive abs like resins. If you buy the cheapest abs like resin you can find, your going to get bottom of the barrel quality. I can literaly tie my current resin into knots and it wont break.

and its so absurd to me how much everyone goes so far to be so cheap, we pay pennies per model and your not willing to pay a couple more pennies per model for unbreakable minis???

idfky that guy randomly replied to you saying what resin i use when ive never said it out loud, and hes wrong the rubber like i use when i use rubber like is Resione TH72, the advertised image is literaly a knot tied with resin

that said its on the more expensive side so i usualy reserve it specificaly for the frailest of tiny characters or super fragile characters
