Dedicated loopers vs M9

Ive got a Line6 M9 that I've started using the looper for solo acoustic gigs. Iy does the job well, using the undo function I can build a loop, then add/subtract parts for the chorus etc. 

But im wondering what a dedicated looper could offer and if it'd be worth shelling out on?

Im not interested in saving loops but setting up separate verse and chorus might be handy. Ability to connect a mic would be cool too. 

At first glance, the ones I've seen either look too complicated (Boss RC300) or too basic (TC Ditto) I haven't looked too closely though tbh.

Do you need more than 28 seconds of looping? (I think its 28 seconds on the m9)?

If the answer is no, I'd take the "if its not broke approach"

The m9 is a great looper full stop. There aren't that many reasonably priced loopers that can hold two sections. Ditto x4?

That's pretty much confirmed my suspicions. Just wondered if there was something out there I'd missed. The only gripe with the M9 is having to switch between fx mode and loop mode but I've got a custom midi switcher that still needs some bugs sorting out. Hopefully that'll sort that issue out.
