I don’t see any difference to the old version: there is no VOX, no 12 meter tape or selectable display colors. A little more effort would have been nice, I don’t think it’s worth buying.
Difference is new board, CTCSS , DCS, NRC board, Elec or Dynamic microphone.. And it’s got VOX too.
Some of the resellers can have 24-28 MHz. Depends on the reseller and what they want mostly.
