In theory yes, and if you only aim your site at flagship smart phone owners.
In my experience in Latin America with 50-150$ Android phones, very few developers/managers in the "western world" actually care about their SPAs performance and in about 9/10 cases the simple backend rendered sites provide a better experience for me.
edit: Of course there also plenty of devs that add a ton of inperformant js to their backend rendered sites, destroying the experience.
