I have the standard view titanium & after a few games love it. I went with the standard view after trying a new view and taking a straight on shot (It hurt, even with the mask very loose & wrap-around pads). IMO the new view mask is a little too flat in the front & does not deflect balls as well as the standard mask profile. YMMV.

The pads are very soft on the inside (Tan doeskin) & tough on the outside (Black vinyl) - IMO a good mix. The wrap around pads really do help absorb impact.

It does take some time to get used to the weight. Took a few innings but now I would never go back.
