Think different

“Here’s to the crazy ones - the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently - they’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the only people who are crazy enough to change the world, are the ones who do.”

Hits different

Something making you feel different than it did before.
I like the Roblox Piggy vocal songs but in thr lyrics of "It Gets Better - Vocal Version" there is "You're stronger than you think" and I've watched the ending cutscene of the Piggy map "Breakout" where I saw the military advertisement poster with Sgt. Monroe on it that Said "You're Stronger Than You Think! Join Today!" And now the "You're stronger than you think" part in "It Gets Better - Vocal Version" just hits different.

Built different

A phrase indicating some quality that differs from others that they’re typically associated with. If it’s a person, it might mean they have an unusual ability, for example, exceptional athleticism, an astute intellect, or ability to respond to a challenge. This makes someone “built different” more difficult to defeat because a different approach must be used.
Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant were just built different because of their speed, knowledge of the game, and killer instinct.
