insert /*+ append */ into customer values ('hello',';there');

insert into customer values ('hello',';there');

if both the above 2 statements are compared then the differences are :
1) the buffer cache ignore in append
2) data written from highwater mark

is there anything else ??

No redo log entries, which improves the insert performance.

Using /*+ append */ doesn't avoid redo -- unless the table is NOLOGGING or you are not in archive log mode. The advantages of using the APPEND hint is as you mentioned, data is written above the HWM rather than searching for free space.
