5700 vs 6700 brifters?

Looking to upgrade to 10spd shimano this year and am wondering if the Ultegra brifters are worth the cost over the 105s?

'Worth' is a big word but 105 work the same, just a wee bit heavier. Good value.

Better as in lasts longer? Shifts better? Current cost is what 30% more for Ultegra over 105?

You can get em online for often half of what they retail for...

Go to a shop and see what you like the feel of more. Get that model.

My fav shifters are DA 7800.

No, no and yes, 105 is a great value.
