That's a totally unanswerable question if ever there was one lol!
Each species has it's own characteristics but each individual hamster is different too, all my hams have had very different characters & habits, 4 hybrids & a Chinese, so I really don't think you can generalise.

I have to agree, being a total dwarf addict, with everything RubyRose said about them, they are so cute & tiny, holding one in the palm of your hand is a real joy, watching the way they roll around in their sand is quite special too! They are really funny, friendly little guys.
My Chinese is so agile she's just amazing to watch & keeps me constantly busy trying to come up with new things for her to climb on, hide & burrow in or just generally play with!
Very different to the hybrids but equally adorable.

I've never had a Syrian so I really can't comment on them at all!
