despite these statements in the general sense there are roms in 6.5 that have made it almost as stable and light as 6.1.


I've ran Roms in both versions and have not noticed any significant gain or loss in battery life. so in the end it all depends on what ur looking for, if u want a phone that's reliable from day to day that won't go crazy on u and u don't want to hunt down and flash custom roms then go with 6.1. if u want flashy animations, and the latest and greatest cute stuff and love to hunt down and flash roms all the time then go with 6.5.
great write up Eric. I agree.

Scott's SSK rom is lights out great! But to be fair Vin 6.5 Neodium was damn good as well
