when new silicone arrives, most of the time it has new features/possibilities. they can be used to further optimize existing algorithms, either to be faster or produce more efficient results. as other poster mentioned, 30% better quality at the same bitrate. it’s actually a quite remarkable feat, cause today’s algorithms are already pretty advanced as they are.

but is it better? well, on one hand yes – on the other, the new algorithms obsolete older hardware. the rig that can easily play h264 may not be enough to play the new codec.
