X-E3 opinions also welcome.

I am right-eyed.

The EVF on the Pro3 is significantly better than the Pro2. In other words it is actually usable.

I just find this sort of casual hyperbole so irritating. There is nothing wrong with the EVF on the X-Pro2, it is perfectly “useable”. Yes it’s a little smaller than some, and it’s LCD rather OLED so a little less contrasty etc, and I don’t doubt for a second that the XP3’s EVF is significantly better (although I’m not so sure about the OVF) - but to suggest that the X-Pro2’s EVF isn’t useable is just plain rot and really helps nobody. Other than Fuji salesmen, of course.
