From what I know, It’s just a wider version of the 888. There’s probably more to it than that, but that’s all I know. The 888 is already pretty wide, so you might not like it. What other yoyos do you have. Would you like more width or less?

Actually, the DNA is actually not a wider version, but a larger version in general.

The DNA is a larger version of the 888, made for those who have a preference for “full” sized yoyos.  
So you should ask yourself: Do I like larger yoyos or undersized yoyos? And with that you get the answer.
