The most visible change is automatic hyphenation. (You can also get that in KF8/azw3 format using the "Add soft hyphens" polish feature in calibre.) Margins will generally be the same. With KFX large line spacing encoded in the formatting some books will be reduced.

KFX will obey the widows/orphans properties encoded in books. Some people find that annoying since it can cause extra blank space at the end of pages.

More subtle changes are use of typographic ligatures and kerning and the ability to switch between justified text and ragged right margin using the Aa menu.
