Original FLIR Scout 320x240,

I've tried to get new Axion for few months, not replacement but supplement, so far Pulsar has f*cked up the delivery twice. Going for XQ38LRF at the moment, but might "downgrade" to XM30S after testing both.
After testing Axion Key XM30, Axion XM30S, Axion XQ38, Axion XQ38LRF for three nights and two days, I went with Key.
XM form factor is much nicer / more ergonomic, least eye sting (others sting equally) and in the conditions I tested Key does everything XQ models do albeit bit differently. I actually think XM30S is inferior to Key. If you want recording I would pay extra for XQ38 over XM30S, and despite worse ergonomics LRF would've been nice option but the difference in MSRP is 1000 Euro.
There is something weird in the eyepiece, more pincushion than others, blue fringing on display edges, weird wide blue halo while using the menus in daylight (not detectable when actually using in dark). On the plus side the brigthness defaults are better than in Sony displays, smaller display stings less anyway and since the smaller display is more centrally in your vision it's more focused all the way around.
Hoping to review the situation when Helion 2 XQ models arrive and demand settles, also looking at 640 class monoculars for FOV (and hopefully video-out!)
