That's how I feel with smartphones. I've skipped the last 2 generations of Nexus phones (although I had to go back and buy a Nexus 6 to use Google Fi) simply because it works well enough for me and there are no new hardware features that I care about.

I don't plan on upgrading until my phone starts to become a hindrance.

I have an S4. I'd consider an S5 if I could nab one for like $150, just to hate slightly better hardware, and possibly stock 6.0 since the S4 won't get it and Cyanogenmod is always a PITA to keep working.

I feel different about my phone because I use it so much. Outside of my desktop at work it may be the single most used item I own. Given that I spend so much time on it, I want it to be good. I want the screen to be nice, I want it to be fast, I want it to have the apps I want when I want them, etc...

Whereas for a tablet, I rarely use ours. It really has turned out to be a replacement for our son's portable DVD player on long trips.
