The verdict

On paper they play much the same, so price and feel decide.

From the Vertex 03 2023 to the Vertex 04 3 specs changed: face Xtend Carbon 12K fiber became Xtend Carbon 12K; frame 100% carbon became CarbonTube; weight system Custom Weight became Grip Custom Weight.

Better buy now: the Vertex 04. It plays at least as well on paper and costs € 30.00 less in Netherlands.

Better where both are weak: control 7.5 against 4.5 and 4, and otherwise close to the two.
