Some form of collection management or tagging is a must for me with several hundred books on the device, so that was a deal-killer for me with respect to updating to a newer Kindle.
As the OP owns a Kindle Voyage and is happy with it, that's probably not an issue.

For myself, I do sideload all my books through Calibre, but have always been happy with all my Kindles. I bought the Oasis 2 mainly because of the larger screen and have not regretted it. And as you can now install your own fonts (that was my main gripe with Kindles), I couldn't be happier.
