I've got a three year old OnePlus 5 and I've yet to encounter a single app that has been slow, so I'm not sure what value a faster phone would have for me. The only reason I'm considering upgrading is to have a better camera.

One overlooked consequence of a faster chip is less strain on a battery and thus longer battery life. While it may not necessarily affect the perceived speed of apps, it has this significant benefit to the user.
