I have both cameras but wouldn't say that the X-Pro2's EVF is noticeably better.

That being said, I still prefer my X-Pro2.

How useful is the small LCD that pops up in the OVF to check focus?

Also, I was surprised how small the actual image frame is in the OVF. I thought a 20-35 ish lens would cover the whole view of the OVF, but it's really a tiny box in the middle.

It looks like I'll be sticking with my X-E3, based on the replies. Just a shame the EVF is not a tiny bit bigger or smoother. Or offers more finetuning in the peaking options - I've read that the color yellow is the best option though only available on the X-Pro2.
