That's weird. ITTF lists it as seamed, which is confirmed by World-TT.
Viscaria FL - 91g
+ Neo H3 2.15 Blk - 44.5g(55.3g uncut bare)
+ Hexer HD 2.1 Red - 49.3g(68.5g 〃 〃)
= 184.8g

Now that's really puzzling. I bet you have tried looking under the light?

In the "Table Tennis Goods" magazine you have lying there, there is an article "Plastic Ball Unveiled - Debut and Test Play" showing a comparison of Nittaku seamed ball and Xushaofa seamless ball.

Ok,after playing for 30 mins.
i think i saw the line,so is  seamed.
the ball feel heavy,less spin but feel more speed,solid maybe because the ball is heavy.
no broken sound.

Thanks nittakuball.Thumbs Up

Yes I think the 'broken ball' sound only comes from the seamless balls.

That's understandable as the new Nittaku ball does not let light through much.

Nice picture for comparison. You're right, they are much less translucent!

Hmm... how can it be so heavy if it has to comply with the rules about weight?

The heaviness could be due to the new material deforming less upon impact.

The latest issue of Table Tennis Goods contains some really fascinating articles. nittakuball, do you mind taking some closeups of these three articles, "特殊素材 コンプリートマニュアル", "フォア&バック 打球感の深~い関係", "“弾道”から見る用具のコントロール"?

I've also heard they (the main manufacturers) are trying to make them as heavy as possible within the legal limits (tolerance), so they may in fact be heavier than celluloid balls.

this ball is good for hard rubbers like DHS H3
my friend is using DHS Pro H3
when I block his loop the ball feel so solid I feel a lot vibrations on my blade(never have this feel before when using normal nittaku ball)

The 40+ Nittaku looks so milky white. How is the texture? Any powdery dust? And what blade are you using?

This is the most interesting topic for me from this week!
nittakuball:  Thank you very much for the photos and shared details! Now I feel mixed, as I almost fixed my future's combo after the knee injury recovering.
Now I will need to switch once again, may be?
I am using M.Maze ALC 90 gr. ST + Aurus Soft max both sides.
May be faster blade and hard sponged rubbers are waiting for me, because of the new ball's playing skills/specifies.
What do you think ?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe the ITTF is doing their usual skirting of the rules by 'increasing the tolerance'. Thus a heavier ball.

+1

Sometimes the hardness of a ball deceives the feeling so the ball feels heavier, but it is actually harder...

As long as the ball is more consistent, I am fine. It sounds like this will be the case.
I like putting heavy topspin on the ball...
