In general, asian eggplants have thinner skin, less seedy, milder taste even when mature. I'd probably also argue they have a higher water content. They have less dense flesh and usually have more give or shrinkage when cooked, but the end result is usually more creamy texture.

Besides Ping Tung, Ma-Zu I really liked some of the japanese eggplants kamo and mitoyo.
