Micro Suspension versus Oxelo Town 7 XL kick scooter

A visual comparison between Micro Suspension Scooter Bronze and Oxelo Town 7 XL kick scooter (older model) from Decathlon.

I've bought the Micro Suspension Scooter to replace my old Oxelo Town 7 XL which is still the best kick scooter that I've got for commuting on uneven road surfaces.

Micro offers a combination of both front and back suspension which is very useful in the most urban areas.
The shock absorbers of the Oxelo scooter aren't as good as they used to be and they always were pretty noisy (now more than ever).

When riding any of the two scooters they feel smooth and I haven't really noticed a big difference between them in accelerating or riding them by carving. The effort is almost the same. I would say that Micro Suspension has a better rolling efficiency (is able of covering a longer glide distance per push), but I'm not really sure.

Both of them are hard to fold and unfold. In particular, when folding/ unfolding the handlebars of the Oxelo scooter (Micro's handlebars are not foldable) your hands always get dirty when touching the metal parts.
And the handlebar grips of the Micro scooter are the worst. They simply don't stay in place.
When I assembled the Micro scooter one of the plug ends of the handlebar has fallen. Both plug ends should've been connected to each other with an elastic string, but the manufacturer forgot to connect one of the ends, so I had to do it myself. (At the time when I published the video with the unboxing and assembly of the scooter I wasn't aware about this situation.)

The scooter from Decathlon came with a carrying strap, but you can carry it with one of your hands without any problem. The Micro scooter doesn't even have the option to attach a carrying strap. Their shoulder strap is not compatible with this scooter. And what's worse, holding the Micro scooter at the balance point with your hand is not something that you can do without hurting your hand...

This was the first test of my new scooter and I can't say (yet) which scooter is better and this says a lot, I guess. Paying the difference for the Micro Suspension may not be the best thing to do...
The new model of Decathlon's Town 7 XL could be even better, but I've only tested it at Decathlon, not on roads, so I can't say if it is a better choice.
