I don't like the ergonomics or lack of waterproofing of most porro prisms. The Swift 8.5x44 ED porro was nice in these regards, but I didn't find the view particularly striking for the price.
Aside from the Nikon SE, I've not found a porro to match/exceed the view afforded by my old Swaro ELs (non-SV) or current Kowa Genesis. The SE was probably a match for the Genesis in most regards (note: I didn't have the Genesis when I got a chance to look through the SE), but again the lack of waterproofing really disallows me from using a bino - I also tend to prefer 40mm+ objectives due to birding at all times of the day and in all types of canopy cover.
