i miss mine. BUT, the A6500 is an amazing piece of tech. Just the variety of lens options alone would sway me if i was trying to decide between the two

Only if the a6500 had an equivalent 16-50S lens and better touch AF. Everything else is decent in that camera.

...and better battery, ergonomics, user interface, more stable heat dissipation, a native fish eye (my favorite NX lens after the 45mm) lens. The S lens is a unicorn, only one (in NX) exists.

The battery life is terrible in both system. For a full day event I have to bring 3 batteries (and I also keep a backup power bank for safety sake) . The user interface is better on Samsung that is true. Ergonomics not so much. NX500 would have OK ergonomics but it doesn't even has an EVF. And for heat dissipation I would not really trust in my system if it comes to that (actually I had to reset it a few times everything because one or another function "stuck and freeze" - like focus mode. And this only happened in hot enviroment or a very long shooting).  The lens selection is still better on the Sony and that will expand latter on. The Samsung won't.
