I have an ipad 4th gen. Still going pretty good, but kind of sucks that some new features of ios9 aren't available for 4th gen. Think it's worth the upgrade?

i dont see the point of them, what can it do that a phone, laptop, or desktop can't, two of which are just as portable?
ill probably be infracted for this post
Are those new features worth $600 and your dignity?
The size, that is all really. I have a galaxy s6, but when I'm at home I favor my ipad for that reason. I don't mean to cause a war, I'm open to any good tablet, but my wife has the newest samsung tablet, and I've been using 4th gen for quite a while now, so I'm used to the interface.

It would be a birthday gift. My wife mentioned it, and I don't even know if its worth it because I still have 4, that's why I'm trying to get some opinions.
I mostly surf the net with it, occasionally play a game, but I don't care much for graphics on a tablet. Though like i said, the newer apple ipads have adblocking apps, I can't use those on my 4th gen. Faster browsing would be very welcome, but that's about all I would really care for.
I upgraded my iPad 1st gen to an iPad Mini 2 years ago and I thought it was worth it. Can't speak for you, but I think I'd do it
Doubling the ram and the slight cpu speed bump are actually pretty noticeable, I was surprised when my gf upgraded from a 3rd gen to the air last year. Of course YMMV depending on how you use it. TouchID is a nice QoL update and of course the better camera if you use it much. Once you get to the air line, short of going with a pro for a (gimped) laptop replacement, you're probably not going to need to upgrade again for quite some time.
I have the ipad2, so, so quite old also, I think it's older than the air 2?
I think it's worth upgrading if you want the new features, but mine works fine so I don't see a reason too just yet,
I paid £300 for mine quite a few years ago, 3 or 4 years ago and it still works fine. This ipad is honestly the most reliable piece of tech I have ever owned. My samsung s4 ive had for 1 year now and its broke twice in that time, never had a single problem with my iPad 2 and I use it a hell of a lot more than i use my phone.
I can tell my iPad is getting dated though, some newer apps and games do lag and load a lot slower than they did when I first got it, but it's still useable for another year or two
