W10M: Is someone comparing Production build and Redstone?

I have a single mobile device on Production. Since I read sometimes that people have multiple devices, does someone have one device on production and one on Redstone? Maybe even similar devices? Is it indeed so that Redstone is clearly better than production, meaning: Does it feel less messy? Or is it just the extra features that make the difference. I know Redstone is still in test phase, so maybe it is just worse because it is not finished yet.

Any meaningful comparison is welcomed.

a few comparisons can be this: Redstone builds get fixes for issues affecting both branches faster than the threshold builds. Redstone also has more features and has a more complete design language in terms of icons etc. On the other hand as you have noticed, they also have more issues because of having more features and not being in the final stage. Performance varies with some saying it's faster and more fluid while others have said the battery drain is higher and issues reduce performance

My daily driver is on latest RS, while another test device on production. I prefer the little enhancements that come with RS - auto-close Edge tabs, UI tweaks, etc., it all starts to add up, but sometimes at a price.
