Will it be worth picking the ATK A9 Plus over the SE/Normal A9?

I know the plus has better battery life and coating but apart from that is there much more merit that makes it worth picking for a ₹1000-₹1500($10-$15) price increase?

For the coating i will most likely use the grip tape provide so will it even come to effect in that case?

I suppose the battery life could be useful but I don't play for like 12 hours a day as I have regular school so only around 3-4 hours of daily use and charging like once every 4 days during study time would be more than sufficient.

I wanna hear what yalls opinion on this is.
