Novopen Echo vs pre-filled pen - less pain?

Hi all,

I've been using a pre-filled novorapid pens since I was diagnosed and recently I got Novopen Echo to use instead. I only took a couple of shots from Novopen so far but it feels to me like the injection is much more "fluid" and hurts less? Anyone has similar experience? With the pre-filled pens they always "clicked" really loudly and the injection itself felt/sounded more like "bang-bang-bang". With the Novopen it feels much more fluid and less painful thanks to that? Maybe because the "bang-bangs" are for 0.5u (instead of 1u in pre-filled pens), so it feels more smooth?
Or maybe I'm just imagining this? :D
