    With it currently being 2015, new and updated technology is all over the place now.
    Some of us might have everything we need, but they might be a little outdated, such as older cellphones/smartphones, laptops, and such.
    But sometimes, upgrading them to the new and latest might not be something we're able to do, since newer technology just keeps getting more and more expensive each day, along with them being upgraded again within a year making it almost pointless (in some cases) for you to constantly keep upgrading.

    But, there are also devices we simply don't own yet but wish we did.
    Which of you devices do you wish you could upgrade (or will be upgrading soon), and what devices do you not own but wish you did?

    For me, I wish I could upgrade my Samsung Galaxy S4 to an S6, or even an S5. But honestly, I love my S4 so much that it really doesn't bother me, plus I'd rather not spend money on a new phone unless it's 110% necessary (far from it at this point). I also wish I could upgrade my laptop, because despite it being only 2 years old, there are already some things on it not working , or working poorly..
    And as for devices I wish I had, it'd probably just be a PS4, Xbox One, and 3DS. :P Cuz who doesn't need more and more video games. :3

    Honestly, I'm mostly satisfied with my desktop, dumbphone, and 6-year-old laptop. I'm going to upgrade (or maybe sideways-grade) my phone by the end of the year, but I think I'm going to replace my laptop when back-to-school sales kick in.

    I want one of those laptops that is also versatile enough to be a tablet. Like the keyboard detaches or folds entirely out of the way for the purposes that better suit that. Since I can get my gaming done on my self-built desktop, it won't need to be powerful at all or have much storage, so I'm hoping I can get one of those for just a couple hundred USD.

    I'd also like a WiiU, but that and even just a few games is putting me at over half a grand in expenses toward supplementary recreation. I'd rather be able to pay rent.

    Sanc, you're right about those technology upgrades and expensive costs... I can totally understand wanting more game consoles!

    This may sound dated, but I'd like to have a Gameboy color, so I can effectively play old Pokémon games like Red, Blue, Crystal, Yellow, Gold and Silver q_q I also want maybe a new laptop and definitely an iPhone (cause it would be soooo much better than my clanky old iPad ;;) I'm always game for high tech drawing tablets too, because different drawing surfaces do make the difference! I just wish everything wasn't so....expensive.


    This sounds stupid, but I want a Blu-ray dvd player and a Mac TV, simply so I can plug my ipod into my TV stereo and watch the K project movie in glorious blu-ray <3

    The only device I wish for is a 3DS. That's it. Once I get that, I'll be content and will want nothing more.

    As for gaming devices, I wanted to upgrade to New 3DS XL because I want to play Smash Bros. for 3DS without waiting too long when it starts up, besides, it seems fast enough. I also wanted a Wii U since it's been long after playing some consoles, and some of the games there looks fun.

    Besides of that, I also wanted a new MPEG-4 digital satellite receiver because some of the digital TV in my country have starting to use it, and my current satellite receiver couldn't handle it anymore.

    I also would really love to own a 3DS. With all the awesome Pokémon games (and non-Pokémon games, for that matter) coming out for 3DS now and before, it's a pity that I can't join the OR/AS bandwagon. A few other games I desperately want would be Y, Animal Crossing; New Leaf, and of course, the upcoming Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon.

    I am currently saving up for one, though. Still, I can't take it that my little brother will most likely get one before I do, and probably won't share it with me. I'll have to do with my old DSi as for now, not that I'm complaining.

    I'd like to get a second 3DS and/or an Xbox One...but they're kinda on the backburner for me since I'm saving up for other stuff at the moment.

    I kinda have everything that I need right now, but if I had to choose I guess getting a proper capture card device would be nice. I have one for composite cables, but I'd really like one for HDMI.

    I really wish I had an Oculus Rift. Idk why, I just feel like it took Technology to a whole different level, and that most games will be somewhat like that in the future.

    I really want an Xbox One, especially the 1 Terrabyte Xbox One. (For those who don't know, 1 Terrabyte = 1000 Gigabytes.) It now also features the cross-platform game usage, which means games on Xbox 360 can be played on it. It also has a cool design, so just, please give it to me. ;-;

    Like Pokeman, I also want a xbox one so I can play Halo 5 and the master chief collection and the xbox one is backwards compatible with 360 games.

    There are quite a lot of things I want, actually. I'll shorten it down to three things.

    1) A PS4. I may like Pokémon a lot, but that's the only Nintendo game I actually play passionately. I'm more into PlayStation's games. Sadly, I haven't bought a gaming console since my PS3 in 2008 or 2009 (can't remember). A PS4 would be great so I can play the latest games as well.

    2) An iPhone 6. I've been on an iPhone 4 for quite a few years already and I haven't even upgraded. Recently though, Apple has already stopped providing updates for my phone. I'm thinking it's about time I save up for a new phone. A Samsung S6 Edge would be cool too but I don't really like Android's interface. I like how the iPhone 6 looks. I love iOS's design as well.

    3) The latest MacBook Pro or Air. So yeah, I've had my mid-2010 MacBook for 5 years already. My laptop's specs are pretty outdated too. For a smoother computing experience, I think a new laptop would be a good investment.

    Also going to mention the New 3DS XL. I don't really want it since I don't need it. But it might not be a bad idea to save up for that as well since my 3DS looks like trash already.

    I reallly, really want a Cortana.
    I have an I-phone, and Siri's beautiful and all, but ever since I saw a commercial of Cortana, I guess I kinda fell in love with it. The voice is better than Siri's, the commercial's voiced by Sam Rigel, I mean, what else can stop my decision for wanting it?~
    I also like the design unlike IOS.
