According to the product specialist

Pros
These brakes have excellent modulation and stopping power.
The caliper has a double piston, making it extra powerful.
The range of the brake lever is adjustable.
The Shimano XT M8100 MTB brakes are fully customisable.
The total weight of 573 grams is low for a brake set.
These Shimano brakes have a sharp bite point, so they engage quickly and strongly.
This brake is strong and is real easy to apply.
You can adjust the Bite Point Control and Reach.
This brake has a stylish design.
These brakes provide good braking power in all conditions.
The double pistons further increase braking power.
Cons
The brakes are not compatible with I-Spec II or I-Spec EV shift levers.
Not suitable for rougher Enduro action.
These brakes are supplied assembled and vented, which means they must be disconnected for frames with internal cable routing.
These brakes are heavier than the XT single piston brakes.
