Just came in on A380 FRA-SFO. I was pretty happy with it, actually. The seats are comfortable, leg room seems OK (just about as good as E+) and the seats are wide enough. The seat reclining in front does impinge a bit. Because the walls tilt awa slightly the cabin feels more spacious.

I would choose it over the UA 777, dunno about the PCO 777, haven't had the pleasure.

I liked it a bit less than LH's renovated 747 economy class (which we flew right before, HKG-FRA), because that seat cushion actually tilts down sightly when you recline.

In an odd way I was more satisfied with E on the A380 than I was with business. The business product on the A380 is pathetic, and there are so many seats that the service suffers compared to what you get on other aircraft. The E product is better than competitors, especially when you leave out E+ on United, so I was quite happy with it.
