The list includes Doze power management, Google Now on Tap contextual search, and greater control to grant and deny app permissions. Samsung has also packed the "latest security patches" into the update, so that presumably means the March fixes, along with some miscellaneous performance optimizations.
As for Samsung's half of the update, there's the new look TouchWiz user interface complete with tweaks and improvements, such as the revamped notification panel. There's also the new web browser with ad-block support. Not forgetting that the Galaxy S6 Edge is now updated with the much more functional edge panel, which can now be used to create shortcuts for a ton of apps and other useful features.
