Because they’re a genuine user, not just a brand loyalist.

The only tech environment I support is Android. I only go for features that are available to all Android users, like Quick Share.

Tech ecosystems are overrated and gimmicky.

I’ve never met anyone who likes being locked into ecosystems.

Forget that noise. I use Mac OS for work and Windows for gaming. Only sticking to one platform is limiting—be versatile.

All that money represents my future budget as well 
No more spending for me, I’m broke now.

I got the Galaxy tab because it was affordable, and the iPad is a gift for my mom.

Do you think it’s necessary to have so many laptops though?

The Microsoft laptop is an older model I seldom use. I mainly use the Acer and Predator now.

This feels like overconsumption to me.
