I was also wondering the same, I'm running Kubuntu 14.10 on an oldish Thinkpad X201 and things work pretty good. I tried booting a live Kubuntu 15.04 which has KDE5 to see what it's like. I dunno, it doesn't feel like much has changed. Different theme and I like it. Maybe a little more polish. Some texts are a little large like in the networking setup popup. On the other hand, Konsole defaults to a pretty small font. But consistent UX is hardly a thing in Linux. Well, something went wrong and now my live system (with persistence) is pretty crashy. Just the kde parts so can't do much any more :( I guess I have to wipe the persistent part or just go ahead and upgrade. Granted, unetbootin which I used to create my USB stick from the ISO image didn't claim to have support for Kubuntu 15.10...
