Thanks Miki-san. It should be okay now. (contributor: PaulO)
Yes. It looks ok now. (contributor: Miki)
So what would be the difference between this and 一方で? I noticed that
the latter is used in writing a lot, can this be used in conversation?

反面 is used in situations where you talk about one attribute and then
another that's most likely be an opposite of the first mentioned attribute.
#4966 is a good example of that.
