What device do you have? AC1200 is a speed.
Is it meeting your needs?
What speeds do you pay for?
Do you use wired devices? Mostly wireless?
How many devices do you have connected?
A lot depends on your budget and if its meeting your needs. If it does everything you need with it, upgrading isn't always going to be that much better. But if you're getting buffering/slow downs or if you're paying for 600mbps and the router maxes out at 100mbps, then its worth it.
So details are key
