I am still on 4.1.2, and haven't seen any reason to upgrade....can anyone let me know why I should do it? Let me know what you like about the upgrade....I appreciate it...

Any update is always a plus. Not saying there is going to be a ton of user side visual additions but the under the hood tweaks and security patches, fixes with any update is always worth it!

Not to mention... Eventually one day your going to get sick of denying and ignoring that Update popup notification.

If you think there is even the slightest chance that you may want to install a custom ROM, unlock your bootloader now or you won't be able to after taking the update.

You know how I feel from the "Am I alone on 4.1.2" thread.

With that said, the only reason I could see to update would be if you need Galaxy Gear support. Otherwise, I'd root and freeze the OTA updater, call it a day and just enjoy using it as is. You're not missing anything from the update otherwise. Just a few security updates and bug fixes, nothing major.
