The Nexus E50 Pro is way more affordable and still a legitimate mid-kick performer, but the Tacks XF Ghost gives you a much wider flex selection, more curve options, and a noticeably lighter, higher-grade build. If budget matters, the gap between these two is hard to ignore at nearly double the price for the Ghost.
