One feature in the A6500 than snapped my head around is IBIS. This is a MAJOR advantage over the M5, IMO. This takes any lens and makes it usable. The A6500 is a camera that I can see lasting me for a very, very long time. Based on Canon's past performance in the MILC market, it will take them at least two more camera releases to get even with the A6500. Maybe not even then because I don't see Canon offering IBIS in any ILC body as it would cannibalize the sale of IS lenses.

I also envy IBIS in A6500 the most. However, I think that Canon won't offer the fantastic function no matter how long I wait for it. So i give up. I am just waiting for the lowered price of M5.
