Note, some cars with both port and direct injection are usually high compression vehicles that are able to use non-premium and premium... and yes, there is power difference because the car computer (ECU/ECM) will advance timings. Some force induction vehicles has similar effect too. Though there's power difference, high octane doesn't have to have more detergent aka Techron or Vpower or whatever marketing gimmick they call them.
Further, there is an ASTM test known as the IVD and one purpose it has is to run what's known as a dirty up clean up test. It runs a test with base fuel and no additive, then inspects the engine for deposits and other harmful effects. Next it runs whatever fuel to be evaluated through it and inspects again when it completes. However much improvement is measured is the metric for quality level of that gasoline.
And lastly, for whatever reason, these companies do put more of their additives in their "premium" fuel versus regular. It's good practice to run it in your vehicle every once in awhile for that reason but if your vehicle requires premium, you need to run it. Its chief reason anyway is to control the explosion better and with a high compression engine, it needs to be there to mitigate detonation or serious damage will occur.
I'm not speaking from internet research, I've worked in this industry for decades.

The only thing I ever felt a difference after using was AT-100 intake cleaner but I have a direct fuel injected engine. Another product that I have used on a different non-dfi vehicle is motorkote upper cylinder treatment. It improved my gas mileage. Really good stuff. A bottle of the Motorkote is good for 15 full tanks with a 20gallon tank.

I used to use Speedway gas because it was close to my house; the Shell was a bit further. But I recently started running in to some jitters/shaking on startup for the past few months and I continued to use Speedway gas.
Switched to Shell for the most recent fill up and also used Techron prior to filling up and it's mostly gone away. I'm taking it in to a mechanic but it's odd that it stopped after driving about 10 miles on Shell gas and the Techron.
I don't know how well it works because I also got my engine walnut blasted last November and it was pretty bad. The car is 12 years old and had a mix of Speedway and Shell gas, depending on if I filled up close to home or close to work.
At a few bucks a pop and 2-4 times a year, it doesn't hurt. I only started using Techron a few times a year since 2018 so maybe not too long of a sample size. Better quality gas probably goes a long way than Techron, I feel.
