The FBW seems to like to generate EICAS messages with regularity. Some can't be cleared until you're on the ground but all in all a nuisance you quickly learn to adapt to. At least it has an EICAS.

The NG has a problem with approach mode.
Once engaged it's a bit of a finger exercise to get out of APPR mode and select another mode.
The EMB can handle a LMC.

As for handling characteristics it's pretty forgiving and probably as easy to land as the NG.
