What I'm saying is, it's definitely a significant upgrade. Only you can decide if it's a worthwhile upgrade, since the Sony RX100 costs ~$600, and a used Canon S95 can only be sold for about $140-180 depending on condition and whether or not all the accessories that came when it was new are still there.

I personally have an S90 - which the S95 is a somewhat improved version of, and I did not make that particular upgrade to the Sony - but I did buy into the Micro 4/3 system and it's greater versatility than the Sony RX100 due to having interchangeable lenses, while keeping my S90 for when ultra portability is critical.

I've personally got a problem spending ~ $600 on a camera with a fixed lens
