It feels better than the original Linux shell. Great colors. It can reopen tabs after reboots.

Good, but has a problem with latest stand-alone git installations. You have to re-configure bash/mintty tasks manually or always use portable git version from Full Installer.

If you like ConEmu you owe it to yourself to check this out. Not 'better' than ConEmu, but enhanced. Pretty much brings the bash/zsh/etc experience to Windows via ConEmu. Try it out!
