Lumia 650 or Lumia 830

Hi All, I'm currently using a Verizon Lumia 735 as my daily driver and I'm looking into making a side grade to a Lumia 650 and Lumia 830.

The primary reason being the Verizon Lumia 735's Mobile Hotspot feature seems like it's locked by Verizon. I just got a postpaid plan and I am unable to create a hotspot.

So looking at the two possible daily driver replacements, they seem pretty much even. So I'd like to get additional thoughts on this matter.

650 vs 830
Looks
> It's a coin toss, both devices look good.
Screen
> AMOLED vs LCD
Storage
> both 16gb
RAM
> both 1GB
CPU
> Reportedly, the 650 has better CPU speeds but a weaker GPU
Camera
> Windows 10 Mobile turned Lumia 735's half decent camera into a bland one, not sure how it affects Lumia 830. The camera samples of the Lumia 650 are looking decent so far.
Battery
> 650 might be weaker in this regard though I'm not sure.

In addition, I've been reading reports about the 830's camera being faulty with some saying that they are unable to a launch the camera and receive a "Something went wrong" error.
^ This may be deciding factor.

Anyone moved from an 830 to 650 or have owned both? Pls share thoughts.
