If I remember correctly, latency is a bit lower on the 5X (although that may have changed with newer firmware... I haven't checked it recently), and it's always seemed to me that the 5x handles interference a bit better than the 5xHD, but I could be wrong about that, since I've never actually done a direct comparison. the HD also tends to try to run at higher modulation than it should in some cases, and has to be manually limited to lower modulation to work properly... I'd say the 5x just seems a bit more consistent overall.
But yeah, the ability to run wider channels, higher modulation at lower signal levels, lower power consumption, ethernet ports that work properly, etc. makes the HD a much better radio overall.
