Nex 5N better then Nex 5R ? (or is it just me ?)

I don't think that the sensor is any different except for a few PDAF sensor sites. Having said that, the 5R may have slightly different implementation/programming of the (semi-)automatic shooting modes, i.e. iAuto, P, A, S.

If you really want to compare pure IQ side by side, go into the "manual mode", and enter the very same values (aperture, ISO, shutter Speed etc.) in both cameras. Use a tripod and take the same Picture with both cameras. You should also take the same lens for both cameras. Only then you (and we) will know if there are any true differences in IQ between the 5R and 5N.
