Is WM6.5 faster or better in any way than WM6.1?

I see a lot of hullaballoo about it here, but I can't find anything about it other than how it has bugs and how its easier to finger it instead of stylusing it.

LOL first of all to get it out nice way of putting "Finger it and stylusing it"

WM6.5 has improved battery life
Smother scrolling
faster program opening
Friendlier user interface
Newer and better Internet Explorer

I mean compared to the ULTRA SMOOTH HTC Album menu popup. If you go to HTC Album and press menu, it slides and scrolls SOOO smoothly. Does Resco explorer scroll that smoothly?
