As a pilot I use X-Plane on a PC desktop (because there're cheap). This version has the best provided aircraft and aircraft instrument panels of all the versions. Detail is much better in all aspects. Lines are smoother, blending looks good. Usability has a decent frame rate. Haven't tried the G1000 cockpits yet, this will make or break X-Plane as MS Flight Simulator X has an excellent G1000 cockpit display including weather and traffic. Unfortunately, it takes a super computer to run it. Scenery is getting better with every version of X-Plane and this version appears to have the best scenery. I couldn't find any roads or highways to check for accuracy, but the mountains, rivers and lakes seem to be up to par. Still checking some of the finer details of instrument flight and aerodynamics. One bug I found was the Cirrus "The Jet" landing lights can be seen under the wings of the aircraft when it flies over head. It's still beta.
