Talking of the signal strength, I must say that I have a +(plus) in this as well. The H and H+ becomes more stable and WiFi/Hotspot range is noticeably better.
This might be one of the reasons why the battery span is improved, it does not hit up except when there is generally poor signal; I must note. Other than that, in fact, it gets more cool than I ever remember.

The HTC One XL is powered with Dual-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A15 & Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, though, this CPU is of a low end compare to other phones running android 5.1.1; the CM 12.1 is still able to run faster and smoother on the phone.
5- MULTIMEDIA:
Although, it is not conclusive that the improvement in the camera and video output is from the camera or not, but it is noted that the video quality improved following the upgrade and the pictures taking after the upgrade are of better quality compare to the previous ones.
CM 12.1, android 5.1.1 for the HTC One XL, just like the same ROM for Samsung Galaxy S4, i9500 comes with AudoFX, an application for sound management.
