How much bandwidth do you really need?

I am wondering just how much bandwidth is really needed with todays devices. I currently have 100/100 service. My most extreme case scenario of connected devices would be: (This is not common that all these would be in play at one time)

 

4K TV - Streaming or Xbox One

1080p TV - Netflix or Xbox 360

1080p TV - Streaming

2 iPhones

2 iPads

3 Laptops

1 Desktop

 

As mentioned, I have 100/100 and I don't really notice anything crazy bad with service. I ran some speed tests, and my laptops are running anywhere from 50-100 up/down, my iPhones are running 100-100 up/down. 

 

I am now considering upgrading to 300/300 or Gigabyte, but wonder if I am just throwing money away. Another thing I am considering is a new router as the rental provided router just doesn't seem to have enough range/power. I also plan to move to Directv Now, which would require more bandwidth.

 

Any thoughts?
