Best Labware for Ring Magnets

Curious to know if people have a preferred labware well geometry when using ring magnets such as the Alpaqua Magnum FLX on magnetic bead-based workflows. For example, round bottom vs v-bottom/conical bottom, circular vs square wells, larger diameter vs smaller diameter

Also, has anyone tried the Arium magnet?

With the rings, I prefer PCR plates. However, regarding magnets, rings are the worst option imho. I only use those:

really fast settling time, fits every plate type, Pellett wont move no matter how fast you pipette..
