Some people think that it is better to purchase a device with new technology right after releasing, because new one is always the best decision. However, I prefer to waiting until a great number of people have bought a new things for the following several reasons: it might not have a good quality, and the price is too expensive. To begin with, the new technological device might be not a good quality. When the new device come out, the companies put in effort to attract customers using advertisement in order to sell it and make a huge amount of profits. Thus, in the advertisement, there are only positive aspects about the product, without any flaw. For example, few years ago, my father purchased a new car, which was the first solar battery car in Korea. He chose it since he saw a lot of commercial about the car on the television. According to the commercial, the car had good interior options, a powerful engine, perfect energy efficiency and great appearance. However, few months later, his car made a lot of problems, such as noisy and not being charged perfectly. This story proves that there is a risk buying a new device, which not verified by customers. In addition, the price of an up-to-date technological product is too much high right away. It is obvious that people are likely to buy a newest one faster than others do, even though they should pay much more money for it. However, today’s society is so fast and competitive, the new one is not going to be forever, other up-to date device will be coming soon, causing the former one’s lower price. For example, when I was in college, I wanted to buy a new cell phone, I Phone7, the newest one at that time. However the price was over than 1000 dollars, I gave up to purchase it. After 6 months, the new I Phone 8 came out, eventually the price of I Phone 7 dropped down by 40% on, and I was able to buy it. This experience proves that buying the newest device right away will waste a lot of money. To sum up, waiting until many people have purchased and used the new technology product can verify its quality as well as save money. In this regard, it is better to hold on buying the newest device than to buy it right away. |
