…is easy to define, at least for me. If the difference is insignificant I can say "It's better but I'm happy with what I've got". If it's a significant difference then I can still say "It's better" but the follow up is either "I'll take one" or, in the worst case scenario (ie I can't afford it) "I'd really love one of those".
Significance is simply related to level of desire :-)
