Poll of the Day > Should I go for a new phone upgrade or a VR machine or a Switch...?

(+) Yeah! (+)

So got a bit back from taxes and I was thinking of treating myself to something, I wanted to upgrade to a 3060ti but I can't get a video card upgrade for my PC because of the massive shortage (not buying one at scalper prices). So I was looking further down the list at other things I want. Figure I can get some other thoughts and opinions to help me come to a decision.

My phone is old, slow and has the worse camera known to man and I want to be able to take amazing pictures of my fur babies if I can but I don't need or want top tier I'm thinking mid range with excellent camera. So I'm looking at the Pixel 4a 5G. (I'm using a Galaxy J7 Prime right now lol)

I've wanted a VR kit since the very first Occulus. The index..looks amazing but $1000? For that much it would need to come with eggplant stimulation sensors. Now with the Quest 2 its very affordable. I could have one here by Sunday and be playing Half Life Alyx or start a new game of Subnautica but in VR.

Nintendo Switch, something else I've wanted since it came out but never got around to it as I always end up pouring the money into my main gaming source, my PC. There's a few games on there I want to play but it would never be may main system, so I generally talk myself out of this.

If your phone is legit slow and offering poor performance, replacing it will give you the best day to day quality of life upgrade, and prevent it from becoming a needed expense later on down the line when it craps out.

If you need a phone upgrade, get that.

Switch apparently has new hardware coming out soon, and it's better to wait for that at this point imo.

I get motion sickness from VR, so there is that.

I own an index and it's bloody amazing
