id say they are worth it on condition you using it for more than 3 years.
if you going to keep wanting the latest and greatest, you never going to win.
the thing with premium handsets is that they last long, spec wise coz even 2 -3 years later its then equal to a mid-range phone.
Look at the SGS2 for example, 2 years on, dual core/1GB Ram is still sufficient even with the S4 coming out.
