I have the rebel xs and bought a t3i.

Is the t3i a leap upward? I had a 18-135 mm. I was wondering if I wasted my money, get a device that was the same that I already had

It is somewhat a step upward.  You're leaving a 10 megapixels with an ISO 1600 max, an 18 megapixels with an ISO 12 800 max.  You will notice quite a leap in your ability to shoot in low light at ISO high and were still reasonably low noise level.

The T3i is more upscale Rebel (it was about 2 years ago) but the last bodies ISO performance rebel is not significantly different than the T3i.  It will probably seem to be a fairly substantial update of performance on your XS (especially with a picture quality in low light).
