An extremely difficult question to answer. AOSP fans will tell you Reaper and Sense fans will tell you Endymion. Both are extremely fast and smooth though. I've used both and i only prefer Reaper because i like AOSP. The only way to judge is to try both and see which one appeals more to you.

I haven't tried Endymion (yet), but I must say that Reaper 2.2.2 is very stable. :thumbup:

I'm planning on trying Endymion as soon as my internet gets sorted out :rolleyes:

i tried two of them, and used long time. So Reaper V2.2.2 is more stable than Endymion V3.4 .
I'd say that both are exceptionally stable, I use Endymion more and don't ever suffer from any instability issues, although Reaper may have better battery life as its not sense.

But both are superb quality, just depends on whether you want to use Sense or not.

I cant/wont choose so I have both, weekends Reaper and during the week Endymion :D But..

Reaper is super faster and has better battery life but that is because you can adjust the light settings, in settings for the light sensor to don't check as much + it does have to keep all that heavy weight of sense 3.5
Not saying that the battery life on Endymion sucks! But when comparing it to Reaper u will notice a difference

Endymion is just the best rom in being customizable u can get with sense (that i know of) here.
It just a matter of having or not having... (wait for it..) SENSE

Completely agree. Been a long time user of Endymion, but recently gave Repaer a go. It's much better than the default offerings from CM7. lowveld has done an awesome job and tweaked it up for performance. I particularly love the browser - it's so smooth and fast. Much smoother than default CM7. I tried to add GPU rendering in CM7, but still doesn't come as close as Reaper's way.

That's a great idea! I use Endymion as my main driver, as it has all my important data and Sense customization, but Reaper is more of a 'play' toy! It's much faster in regards to speed.

I can't comment on battery life, I'm finding both to be very similar IMO.
