I started wit diamond armor, but I wear wood elven scout armor now. This is why it gives you a speed boost so you run quite fast while exploring and you can outrun most of your enemies. The disadvantage is, that this armor is just leather armor, so when it comes to actual fighting it's quite weak. In order to make up for that, it should be enchanted and I mostly use a bow with this.

I asume, when other amors would give you another magical effect too, people would probably use them more often. But real role players will always wear the armor of their faction independent of what stats it has.
