What's the latest gadget or tech that you regret buying?

posted 2 months ago

I honestly regret buying my gaming laptop. I barely use it since I don’t have space in my room, so I need to attach it to the TV, every time I need to use, move my series X and unplug it… And I need a wired controller. Then, there’s always a pesky update, drivers, stuff… When I’m playing on my X I don’t have to worry about any of that, is more of a hassle to use (the laptop).

Ngl I basically bought it because I wanted to play Spiderman and other not available games on Xbox but even like that the regret is there.

I mean, I already explained with playing on pc is a hassle for me…

Also I forgot, Xbox has that resume function, not even PlayStation had that. And obviously it’s not a thing on pc.

It’s called “sleep” and “hibernate”. Existed since like windows 95.

Is not the same and you know it. And Xbox does it flawlessly between games. Good luck doing that with a PC without crashing the games plus with a higher electricity consumption.

I know, that’s why I said you should have bought a PS5 for probably cheaper.

But then if you are ready to enter the PC cult, you’re in the right place 😁

Edit: I saw you said in a comment that ps5 was not sold in your country. I’m sorry for that mate. Sony sucks sometimes.
