According to the product specialist

These brake pads are very sensitive and grip quickly.
Hardly any noise while breaking.
This brake pad is 40% more durable than its K02S predecessor!
The K03S is quick to grip and has good doseability.
Due to the soft compound, this brake pad makes little noise during braking.
These brake pads are very resistant to heat generated by long descents.
These brake pads are very wear resistant.
Cons
These brake pads are less suitable for hilly or mountainous areas, as they are less able to withstand the heat generated by a lot of braking.

The K03S Resin can lose braking power if it gets too hot, for example during long descents.
Sintered brake pads have a slower engagement than organic brake pads.
