If you can ignore where the print stops (there were when I was struggling with HTPLA but didn't realize that was the issue) these actually show the different fairly well:
That is pretty exciting! About halfway through the live stream recording. It looks great! My 2.4 is working pretty well but I think I'm going to give this a go anyway. My 2.4 is meant to be arguably my best printer and this seems like a worthy upgrade to try since I have a few things I'd like to...

The AirGradient boxes I made have proven more subtle to photograph so I've been having trouble since I'm in between digital camera setups at the moment and don't have a way to do digital macro (I traded my D750 for a Hasselblad
since I'm a film camera nut). Anyways, the VFAs are improved and the side walls appear more consistent are the two main things I've seen so far. You can see that in the above link fairly well.
I still have some ripple (not ghosting since it's all the way end to end) that I need to sort out but that's surely something else. Far better than my Prusa's though. I will say the Prusa's are absolute workhorses I rarely have to touch whereas I have to tinker with my Voron's more. But the tradeoff is much improved print quality by comparison.
Because of my HTPLA woes, I haven't put the G2 though all the paces yet, such as seeing how fast I might be able to print, and I haven't tried ABS or PETG yet. I also want to compare other colors than black. I need to print some parts with my fav color (Atomic's Starry Night) to see how they compare. Those will be apples to oranges though as the parts I've made with CW2 on those use a .6 nozzle and I'm switching back to a .4.
So a bit early to say though so far, I would say the G2 is a definite improvement. It's a simpler build, at least I found it was, than CW2 and it does show a nice quality bump. But it's a nice to have, not necessarily a need to have and does violate the whole "off the shelf parts" thing (which is why it's not an official Voron offering at present). I think it also might be just a tad heavier than CW2? I didn't weight them and I should have but G2 felt a bit heavier to me than my CW2 with the Moons motor.
