With the way things change so quickly, I don't buy technology/gadgets during their launch anymore.

Sometimes spur of the moment, but usually when we get rid of the old

I only buy new gadgets when I feel like it is something I need, or if my current one breaks.

FOr example I didn't run out and buy a tablet when they came out because I felt that it wasn't something I need. When my Laptop broke, I went right out and got a new one right away since I feel like I need it more.

I buy new gadgets when mine either break/wear out or I feel like treating my self. For example I am buying myself a new camera for Christmas but I have been wanting one for several years.

I only get something if I really need to replace something. It has to be a reasonable price as well.

generally only when they break. I'm working on a cell phone from 2008 and my desktop computer from 2004 is still in business!

I only buy new gadgets when the old ones break. I do lust over the new ones though.

I tend to buy new gadgets when my old ones break. Sometimes I get upset when I can't replace my old ones with something closer to what I used to have. I'm dreading the day my cell phone dies, because I really don't want or need a smartphone.

This post is coming to you from my first laptop, a Mac. I'm probably going to buy another computer, a tower, before this breaks down past use, because it's too expensive and heavy to drag everywhere, and it's very difficult to use this for higher tiers of work. So... Yes, I will buy something before I *need* it, but I am in a tricky situation.

When my old ones are time for an update.

Considering how often they come up with "new and improved" versions of the popular gadgets, I usually just use what I already have until it's totally dead (as in, won't even turn on or charge or anything), then replace said gadget with whatever is within my budget at the time.

New toys are always coming out. I only get a toy if there is a good sale and I have to have it! I end up talking myself out of most toys though.

Same here. If it's not broke, I don't fix it.
