5600s and resins

For those who are more seasoned collectors of the 5600s, my first G-Shock is the GLIDE 5600 on the left. The band is clearly different style than the 5610 on the right, but does anyone else think there is a different quality or feel to resins on their different watches? There wasn't much to be learned from the specs included in the box, but curious to know what others think.

I feel like they're moving more toward the bio-resin bands. They're much more supple and I imagine its the current direction on renewables

They all leave silly imprints in your skin. I have adapters coming to switch to silicone.

I think the DW 290 I recently bought has it. So probably connected to how long those 5600s were sitting on the shelf before I got them and less to do with price tiers.
