NEW Electronics – Worth It? REALLY??

NEW Electronics – Worth It? REALLY??

Everyone rushes out to Sprint to buy the new phone, Best Buy to buy the newest TV, the Apple Store to buy the newest Apple Gadget. WHY????

Because, it’s the newest thing out and they must have the latest technology. It doesn’t make sense to me. The product is not proved out. The price is the highest, and it’s the “original” version, which means…..UPGRADES are on the way!

So here’s my perspective NEVER BUY ELECTRONICS WHEN THEY FIRST COME OUT!

Here’s an example: WINDOWS VISTA! When it came out, everybody ran to the stores because it was Bill Gates’ new thing and “anything Gates touches must be incredible”. Yeah right, everybody HATED it! So much that even after the “upgrades” Vista was unable to lose that bad image they had in the marketplace. What did Bill do? He scrapped Vista and came out with Windows 7.

How about Motorola DROID? Everyone ran to get Droid. When it came out it, it only came with the original Android software. You don’t hear much about problems people had with the Droid, but Droid 2 is a faster, more updated, and more versatile phone…and guess what? The price didn’t increase, it stayed the same. If you did like me, wait until the Verizon promotion, you could’ve gotten it free!

Smart Spends’ Tip: Don’t rush out to buy electronics when they first come out. Let them get proven and prices lowered. You will be happy you waited.
