So what`s difference between the 2? From both there descriptions they both have the same cut level. So the difference is...

Different kind of abrasives technology: 105 is using non dimishing abrasive and 95 is using dimishing abrasives.

Exactly.

I have both. I prefer 105 overall, but on one job that I did (involving wet sanding) the 95 was easier to work with.

M105 is fully SMAT and M95 is half SMAT and DAT. They both cut well and have different characteristics. M105 will leave a better finish but as a very short work time as its a very dry compound. M95 doesnt leave as fine of a finish as M105(doesnt really matter as when you are compound you always need to follow up with a polish anyways) but it much more user friendly. It has a really nice working time as it has great lubricity and wipe off is really easy.
