Overall winner: 9x12 Sketch Book 3-Pack, Spiral Bound, 100 Sheets each

Key Differences

Fuxi (A) is a 9x12 spiral-bound sketchbook set with 68lb/100gsm acid-free paper and highlights durability and multi-use (sketching, painting, writing); Canson (B) is a larger 19x24 Bristol pad with exceptionally smooth, bright white paper suited to pencil, pen, ink and colored pencil but noted as thinner than cardstock with some sheets reported to fall apart. Pick Fuxi if you want a durable, multi-use spiral sketchbook set and a more affordable option; pick Canson if you need very smooth bright white bristol surfaces for dry media on larger sheets
