Lysosomes typically break material down whereas endosomes are the distribution centers. Endosomes sort through the material brought to them and send it to the right place in the cell.

What is the endosomes function?

Endosomes provide an environment for material to be sorted before it reaches the degradative lysosomeAnswers.com. For example, LDLis taken into the cell by binding the LDL_receptorat the cell surface. On reaching early endosomes, the LDL dissociates from the receptor, and the receptor can be recycled to the cell surface. The LDL remains in the endosome and is delivered to lysosomes for processing. LDL dissociates because of the slightly acidified environment of the early endosome, generated by a membrane proton pump V-ATPase. The Mannose_6-phosphate_receptorcarries Ligand_(biochemistry)from the Golgi destined for the lysosome by a similar mechanism.
