Before buying a tablet, we have a need in mind. If the need is filled, we either do not need to change the tablet or change it quickly to have a stronger one more adapted to the need. If the need is not filled, the tablet is almost not used (often given to children) and we do not buy another one. The candy crush like applications almost never requires a tablet: they work as fine on a phone. The use case is very different from phones. Obsolescence is very different. I am still using my palm III XE (very rarely) for the single application that motivated buying it 18 years ago.
