The Lite mode requires no downloading of the blockchain, so your coins show up instantly and transactions can be made.
The Hybrid mode allows for the blockchain to download in under half an hour, as compared to days with other cryptos.
The total time of downloading the blockchain has dropped 5000% from previous versions, dropping it from 4 to 24 hours down to 5 to 15 minutes on average.

http://www.coinssource.com/pandacoin-hits-v3-0-with-revolutionary-new-blockchain-features/All Alt News - PandaCoin: Develops World’s First Hybrid Cryptocurrency Wallet - Inbuilt Lightweight Mode, Instant Sync Technology & Rapid Blockchain Download "A spokesperson for Pandacoin explained, “We as a team had identified several user experience problems with the typical main storage of cryptocurrency clients that have yet to be addressed adequately. New users to any cryptocurrency should not need to wait for many hours and in Bitcoin’s case, sometimes even a week, for their wallet to download and synchronize with the blockchain, before being able to see and utilize their cryptocurrencies. Using lightweight clients is a possible solution to this problem, but not ideal for any Proof of Stake based cryptocurrencies, as users are then not participating in interest staking or helping to secure the network to prevent 51% attacks. However, we understand that some of our current and future users will have bandwidth and hard drive storage restrictions, so we are giving them the option to easily switch to ‘PandaBank Lite’ within the same client...”View the rest of the article HERE -
