I've flown 787 followed by A350 on QR quite a few times and my preference is certainly the A350.
The cabin feels much roomier (I assume the A350 is bigger?), the aircraft is certainly quieter and you can control the window shade easily without the silly tinted glass. Oh and I think the A350 has much better cameras that seem to be in HD (can't recall if the 787 even has any?).
Seats are however identical and both are much nicer planes than the old generation.
