Anyone moved from the X100V to the X-E4?

I had an X100V, sold it, and got two XE4s. These are my personal reasons. I'd say the overall theme is I enjoy minimalism in the shooting process, so I did like the fewer controls of the XE4. But also I like having at least two lenses, so couldn't get quite as minimal as the X100 series.

• Focal length: I personally felt smothered at 23mm. I liked being a bit wider. The 18 F2 and 16 F2.8 are still pretty small. Lately I like to use the distortion corrections so being a bit wider is better. Could never get the 27 pancake to work, the photos just looked like someone's bad cell phone pic gallery.
• Second body: I took the XE4 with the 18 F2 on a 10 day trek in Nepal. It was really nice to have a second XE4 with the 50-230 or 50 F2 in my bag. Overall it was pretty lightweight and I didn't have to worry about lens changes in dust or how two different cameras worked. The XE4 with a light lens weighs less than many bodies or lenses alone.
• Minimalism in shooting: The new XE4 is quite a bit different than the XE3/X100V and it's probably polarizing. I personally liked the more simplistic design of the XE4. When I'm shooting with the XE4 I often have one hand and snapping on the go with the LCD.
• Weight: I already had an XS10 but decided to go for XE4s because of lower weight and longer battery life for hiking trips where I might not have electricity. I was surprised four batteries lasted my entire trek, but I was judicious about turning it off when not in use. Some of the treks I've been on like Machu Picchu and Everest Base Camp have strict weight requirements for the porters.

Ever since I got the XH2S though I haven't used the XE4 very much. The XH2S feels big and clunky by comparison but I'm thinking maybe the world is right and video is the next step from stills. The XH2S has gotten me beautiful 4K slow motion footage of gulls flying in front of mosques in Istanbul and handheld shots of waterfalls. But I do miss being able to hold a camera with a small prime up in one hand and quickly snap a street shot.

Really like the muted colors. Is this a film sim or post processed?
