My wife has an s120 that works perfectly. It is a great camera and very robust. It has received many drops and bumps and still works.
But she believes that the current cameras should improve a lot compared to one of so many years.
I've been looking at the current G9x, G7x and G5x and the specs aren't much better except for the 1-inch sensor and DIGIC processor. I don't know if she will notice a significant improvement with a G9x, G7x or G5x. The question is, is it worth spending the money for a new camera of these having an excellent s120?

Value is in the eye of the beholder. If shes doing large prints, yes, if not, no.
