I currently don't have much time to put into hobbies, but I did some gardening/landscaping during a break in the rain last weekend. Felt great to get out and move around. Garden finally is put to bed for the winter (or what's left of it).

They're a bit worse overall. The tongued ones are easier to manufacture and tune but somehow that also means the quality is just worse in general. It also has a bit of this metalic tone which is harder to play nicely but you can hand cover the holes to manipulate the sound as an advanced technique. Also tongued ones are better played with sticks rather than hands so the instrument just feels different overall and smacking the handpan with your hands (thus the name) is much more fun.

That being said, tongued handpands are still cool and can be very flexible though for first handpan I'd go with the traditional one.
