Solid and versatile

Was looking around for unflavored isolates for a while and chose to try this one, although not vegan myself, prefer to get plant protein in lieu of animal products. After using it for a while I have found this (unflavored) variety holds up to the name, depending on what you’re mixing this with, the “flavor” is relatively neutral, adding slight color, texture is relative to what it’s being mixed with: a creamier thicker liquid will blend well and provide a smooth texture, while water and clear liquids allow for a slight chalkiness and grit, this isolate also does well being added to solid food. After using this product regularly I have felt a faster recovery time during rest and noticeable muscle gain. All in all, this isolate is versatile and I do recommend it, it is ultimately it’s up to the user to experiment with what works best.

Avoid at all costs

Due to the severe price inflation of whey protein (not just myprotein, seems to be everywhere), I decided to save some money and buy the pea protein powder. I assumed that at worst it would taste and smell like pea soup. I was so wrong. It's like the pea flavour has been magnified by 50. I literally cannot stomach this protein powder, it brings on a gag reflex with the smallest sip. I would rather drink actual pee than this product. I have tried mixing it with several different liquids to mask the flavour. The best thing I could find to hide the taste was black coffee. The bitterness of the coffee seemed to mask the flavour at first, but then the pea after-taste would come on and the vomiting would start again.
As far as mixability goes, it has a very chalky texture. It is a much finer powder than whey protein. When I first went to mix up a shake using this protein, I used about 350 mL of water for a double scoop. This is what I would normally use for mixing two scoops of whey protein. When I shook my shaker cup the mixture instantly changed into the consistency of baby pablum. I had to double the amount of water just so that I didn't have to eat it with a spoon. Even further dilution was required to make the flavour bearable. At this point I'm diluting it so much that it completely defeats the purpose of a protein powder.
Do not be tempted by the slightly cheaper price tag, it's not worth it. Avoid at all costs.

Thick

I wanted to try for myself so I did not consider the reviews when buying. The taste is OK but this does not mix well and is very thick. I’ve tried with oat milk and in oatmeal. It was better mixed in oat meal but not great. I’m going to stick to the clear whey isolate, it’s amazing, tastes great, and so much easier on the stomach.

What a disappointment!

I have been using MyProtein for a long time, from whey to Isolate, even there newest clear whey, none of them has never leave me with such a shocking taste! As others had mentioned, the pea chocolate with stevia is super chalky, does not dissolve well, and flavor was very bad. Other flavor including banana bread and mint vanilla taste much better. Avoid this flavor at all cost!

Terrible taste and grainy
1
I cannot believe how bad this protein tastes. The flavor added is fine, but the flavor of the pea protein itself is disgusting. It's like the worst part of peas, and the flavor is so strong. I can mix 3 parts whey protein with 1 part of this, and the pea protein is still the dominate flavor. Additionally, this has a grainy/sandy texture that does not dissolve well. Absolutely do not buy this.

The garbage can.
But really, you need to cut it with some other type of protein or mask it with a bunch of other ingredients in a smoothie.

This is basically fraud

The online description of the product is factually incorrect. I bought "40 servings", but it clearly says it's only 25 servings on the bag. The product has significantly more carbs and fat than what is advertised on the website (150 cal, 4g fat, 5g carb, 22g protein). And it tastes absolutely awful.

Tastes good

This pea protein tastes good. I like the taste of the chocolate and banana. The tiramisu isn’t that good.
It mixes well and isn’t foamy.
