I agree. It's a night and day difference versus the magnetochromic viewing film. The monochrome film doesn't reset itself after the field is removed,[1] and the contrast is not as good.
I bought both types on Amazon a few years ago. The specific magnetochromic film I bought at the time disappeared from Amazon (along with its vendor) shortly thereafter, but it seems like at least one seller has the same kind of product again.[2]
