None of the ego clearos are as good as any cartomizer. Nor is the vivi Nova. IMO, anyway.
But...the CE3 aka Phoenix clearos are actually better as in flavor and vape quality, but a pain to fill and easy to get dry hits. I've been told from sources I trust that the Nano 510 clearo and the Kanger T3 is as good as the CE3 in flavor and vape quality. I have yet to try them.
I personally, prefer the smok 1.7 ohm single coil cartomizers over the Boges.

As good, yes, but different. Cartomizers and clearomizers are different devices and will affect the flavor in different ways. For me, I like the Smoktech XL single cartos in my tanks, and I like the Kanger T2s as well, and each seems to work well with certain flavors.
If you truly like the flavor and performance you're getting from your cartos, maybe the next step would be to get a good carto / tank setup.

No is the simple and short answer they are also inferior to any brand of 801 fusion, Smoktek 1.5,1.7,2.0,2.5,3.0,4.0,4.5,5.0s IMO
you can avoid dry hits with the ce3s by switching out the silica wick for cotton. Or if you're not into tinkering, just do a couple dry puffs before you fire your device to make sure the wicks are primed. You can also give them a little squeeze, you'll see bubbles come out as you force juice into the wicks.
When i go back to cartos (Boge 2.0s) now, i find the flavor muted as all get out. DV has the best price, unless you can get in on a CoOp.
CE3 - 5 Pack
IMO the Kanger T3s perform very well (i.e., vapor production) but the flavor is still not as good as a CE3
the ce3s are highly reusable as well, when one gets funky, pull out the old wick, dry burn all the crud off the coil and put in a new wick. They vape better than "brand new" with a cotton wick.

Try an ikenvape 801 fusion with an adapter for 510. Boge and these neck and neck. The edge goes to the fusion more consistent.
Just need to know where to look.
ElectronicStix.Com · Boge 801 Fusion Blank Cartomizer Low Resistance 2.0 oHM 5 Pack
They even have lazer drilled 801's for the same price
ElectronicStix.Com · Single 801 Fusion Laser Punched Cartomizer For Tank Systems
They even have XL's (45mm)

Same here on the Smoktek vs Boges and also on the carto vs clearomizers.I suspect that has a lot to do with our choice of liquids.
Boges are great, while they last. But I'm sure you know that their half-life is pretty short. Even though they may work fine after a few days, the flavor gets weird and eventually they stuff up and have to be tossed. I find the Vivi Novas and their clones to be every bit as good and much more durable. Plus you can clean and rebuild them.
About 75-25 VG/PG. With clearos it doesn't seem to matter too much (especially with cotton), but cartos hate thick juices. Especially dark, sweet ones. When I first started vaping I tried some insane chocolate, pure VG mess from Johnson Creek. Killed the cart in less than an hour. Vape and learn.
