I tried one unglued in my forehand (Stiga Allround Evolution blade). Soft version, red, tokuatsu. The thing is VERY soft, both topsheet and sponge. Topsheet is very grippy however not tacky. It reminds me Tackifire Drive topsheet, but softer.
It's very nice (and easy) to loop with this rubber as well to block opponent's drives. But it's tough to smash with it. This is the reason I still prefer Bryce Speed, it's faster and better for quick attacking.
I also tried europeans rubbers with speed glue built-in effect, like Energy X-tra and Impuls Speed. I would say Renanos Soft stays right in between Bryce Speed and these two. ------------- Phenom st/BW3/Ω3Euro ● Photino st/Ω4Pro/R7S ● Speed 90 fl/Vega Euro/S3 |

Everything you said. Speed is nice, much faster than X-tra or Impuls Speed, but slower than Bryce Speed. I didn't feel much glue effect on Renanos although Nittaku says it's a "no glue" rubber. Click sound is not produced easyly like Impuls Speed, unless you hit very hard.
What's the weight uncut/cut?
I didn't measure uncut rubbers. Cut in the shape of Clipper Wood Cpen (forehand) it has 37g, exactly the same of Energy X-tra. Both in maximum thickness available.
Softness and throw angle compared to Impuls speed?
As soft as Impuls Speed, topsheet and sponge. Has a lower throw than Impuls Speed, I'd say more likely Bryce Speed. BTW, I'm still looking an alternative to Bryce Speed but no cheaper rubber seems to combine speed and spin in that level.

I have 2 sheets of the Hard version. I haven't had a chance to play with it much, but the topsheet is definitely semi tacky. It's very mild but it's able to pick up the ball for a second or so when it's brand new. I'll add more when i get a chance to hit w/ it
