Hello there,
here's the main differences between PS cs5 & cs6:

What’s New in Photoshop CS6 vs. CS5?

-The long-rumored darker and modern user interface
-Redesign and clean-up of all icons, buttons, dialogs – plus rich cursors
-New Content-Aware Move, Extend, and Patch Tools
-Terrific [DSLR] video editing in both Standard and Extended versions, for many formats*
-Skin-Aware Masking with Face Detection – auto-generation of skin-tone masks
-Complete overhaul of 3D in Photoshop CS6 Extended – 1 tool now does work of 14
-Some great new (and realistic) brushes – Erodible Tips and Airbrush Tips
-Brand new Camera Raw 7 technology like in Lightroom 4
-White Balance and Noise Reduction as a selective Brush
-Text/Character Type Styles and Paragraph Styles
-Adaptive Wide Angle Lens Correction to fix distortion and straighten lines
-PixelBender now built in to Photoshop CS6 for oil painting filter
-Enhanced and more flexible Brush Pose, Brush Projection, and Color Dynamics
-Rewritten vector engine, real vector strokes with Dashed and Dotted Lines
-Mercury Graphics Engine gives 10-100X faster Liquify, Transform, Warp & more
-Big gains in performance throughout due to much greater usage of the GPU
-New Gradient Map “Photographic Toning” presets and Color Lookup adjustment layer
-Blur Gallery for creating shallow depth of field, tilt-shift blur and graduated blur
-Much smarter “Auto” for better starting points and one-click corrections
-Lighting Effects is back and better than ever, with much improved controls and 3D
-Completely reengineered and nondestructive Crop Tool, like Lightroom’s
-Background Save, including tunable Auto-Save and Crash Recovery
-Integrated Layer Search/Filtering – by name, effect, style, mode, or attribute
-Easy migration tool that imports/exports custom presets and settings
-New “Bicubic Automatic” default for Image Size always does the right thing
-Path snapping & anti-aliasing improvements – critical for exacting work
-Easy insert of Lorem Ipsum text from the Type Menu
-The return of Contact Sheet II and PDF Presentations in Photoshop
-A completely redesigned and enhanced Print dialog
-Refined HDR tool with better quality including Edge Smoothness option and new presets
-Ships with Bridge CS6, which now has native 64-bit support for faster performance
-Mini Bridge taps the power of Bridge in a panel, and can now run in a filmstrip

There are lots of features changed and improvised. I like the tool of content aware. It's just amazing. The Brushes are also improved in photoshop. I like cs6 the whole suite.

I think it's definitely worth the upgrade! Another sweet option is using the Design Cloud which allows you to use CS6 on a subscription basis and get updates as they are released, which will allow any kinks to be worked out without waiting for the next version.

I don't know. I might upgrade from cs5 when I get time, but from whats changed, I don't think I would use any of it. I would primarily upgrade for the dark interface and the better 3D.

i think i'll stick with CS5 a bit longer. until bugs have been ironed out. cs5 still works great though. :)

Better 3D, better brushes, better interface, better content aware (plus some handy little additions that you won't even notice, that are very useful). I'd say CS6 is much bigger upgrade from CS5, than CS5 is to CS4.

As per my opinion CS6 is better than CS5. There are many new features are added to CS6.
