Personally, I feel the EVFs are remarkably similar. The new one is a tick better (seems like its smoother with better video acceleration, like a better video card on a PC), but its not night and day. I find the new one handles scenes a little better, so that's a plus, but nothing of substantial value. I do notice the brightness (hardware) and AUTO brightness software improvements, but I ultimately moved away from AUTO brightness to a more stable set manual value to judge exposure better.

I think optically the r5 is already superb, I upgraded from a 5dii and I would never go back to an optical viewfinder, the ability to preview exposure and see a live histogram is priceless. Only complain is the small lag to turn on via proximity sensor. Is the r5 ii lag reduced? That would be a major improvement in my book even more than eye autofocus.
It might be a little quicker but not massively. I don't feel like its too slow though. On occasion the R5 did feel slow, but oddly not always. But the night and day difference I'm loving is the distance the EVF turns on at. It feels like its been extended by 10mms or so. That comes in handy for me, because there are positions like laying down or seated which need more detection range.

had the first outing with one - TBH, I didnt even notice a difference. I didnt shoot side by side, so there is that.
Yep, not much in it. I did play with them side by side, and didn't see a huge difference.
