What piece of tech or electronics have you been using the longest?

[freeburn]

What electronics/tech have you had for the longest? That actually gets fair usage.



My Beyer dynamic dt990 pros. I have been using this headset for music and gaming for nearly 9 years now. I can't even fathom how many hours of use I've put on these cans. It's wild because they are still super comfy, work just fine, have pretty minimal wear. I have zero reason to buy a new set other then I just want to. I originally bought these for my gf in 2013, but she wanted Bluetooth so I just kept them for myself.



So for black Friday I decided to keep it in the Beyer family and upgrade to the dt 1990 pros. The comfort of Beyer dynamic headphones is unmatched imo. Like wearing pillows. And ofc the sound is great.


All my retro gamers in this section... Do any of you use the same system you had as a kid? I regret not keeping every system I had as a kid as I'm sure many of us do. If only I knew then what I know now.

Cooler Master Quick Fire TK mechanical keyboard
First mechanical keyboard and I've had it for 8 years. It's basically perfect for me so unless it breaks I don't see me getting a new one any time soon.

I have my ps2 and 360 ... although not sure if the 360 works.



My oldest tech is probably my jbl charge 3 which i use for the pc lol and perhaps my samsung ear pod gen 1s.

Yeah same thing here, the battery is just a little worse though. Main reason I'm finally upgrading is next year I feel will finally be an upgrade that feels significant enough with the S23 Ultra. I sell phones and will be ordering a bunch anyway so I'll just take one for myself.

Longest ever for me was a Monsoon brand 2 speakers+subwoofer setup, was a hand me down from my dad in HS (2005). Finally had to replace them in 2019 as one of the wires to the volume controller went bad and it was just all connected so no way to replace just the wire.

Longest current is probably my PS4, got it on launch so 9 years. Only modification I've done is upgrading the HD to 1 TB.

Nice. I have and still use a 10 year old onkyo reciever I got from a home theater in a box setup. I just use it to power my klipshe bookshelf speakers for 2.0 music now

I was still using a Sandisk Sansa Clip MP3 player up until 2018. 10 years of service and the battery life still beat every Ipod or Iphone by days



You could hurl that thing at the ground and stomp on it and it would still work perfectly

[TokenV]

been using a similar one like this daily for almost 25 years

in a couple of years the AM/FM will disappear and be replaced by DAB+... then I can only use it for CD's (or cassettes lol)

Lawl I had one of these for work for a few years when I was a cart pusher at Costco. I loved it because I could keep it in my pocket facing outward and just tap my thigh over my pants to pause the music when a supervisor came outside. Ran the headphone cable over my back. Worked like A fookin charm.

I've had my 55in 1080P Sharp TV since 2014, play on Xbox One, and I still use a Galaxy S8 phone. And I regularly play the original Star Wars Galaxies on a Lenovo T530 Thinkpad laptop....all with obviously no complaints, so never had a reason to switch it up 🤷‍♂️

[jamalfudge]

Probably a 20ish year old DVD player. Kids watch movies on it now. We don't have a smart tv and don't care to.

I was using my Sansa mp3 player probably up until 2016-17. I ripped most of my CDs on it 12+ years ago. Now whenever l listen to music at home it's usually on headphones on YouTube.

- Samsung Galaxy S5 phone. I bought it in 2016 but the phone was released in 2014. Not planning to upgrade unless I have to because I won't use any of the features on a newer phone.

- TV and computer monitor both from 2015. No desire to upgrade those anytime soon either. I'm satisfied with them. The TV is not a smart TV but my blu-ray player will run apps so I'm good to go.

[JayJ350]

Probably some old game consoles and my old ipod classic that can barely hold it's charge. I've also got some old electronic clocks and other random chit that's probably been around forever. Oldest computer I still use is probably my old late-2013 MacBook Pro, likely the last Apple computer I will ever own. That and I still got some old monitors, but only one of them is being used with anything, an old Shuttle PC that I play emulated arcade games on (sort of a custom arcade cabinet without the cabinet).

[yeshli2nuts]

While I don't play it as much as I used to, my original N64 that I bought from Caldor in 1998 still works like a charm. I still play Goldeneye from time to time.

[nikeoneplatinum]

My garmin golf watch, long gone are the days of finding a sprinkler head, looking for colored stakes, or pacing off yardages.

[Silencespeaks]

My laptop is from 2014 lmao

Logitech G15 keyboard for 14 years and xbox 360 controller for windows for the better part of 10+ years.

[Deathstroke]

My Roku 4K

My Nintendo switch

And wired earbuds, I can afford and I want the wireless Bose ear buds but I’m deathly afraid of losing one of them even with a carry case.

I don’t own or use a personal computer or laptop currently . But I change smart tablets and whatnot as much as I change my underwear.

Dem earbuds doe

Ah and audio engines with the subwoofer I stream music on. I need music out loud . Don’t really like to listen to music with headphones cause afraid I’ll miss the doorbell or some chit

all my old consoles and handhelds are still in working condition, dat dere absence of moving parts lol

also lots of other old chit that's still working (like my calculator from school, an old turntable, ... ) but I figured the thread was about stuff you still use almost daily

[HotCheetos]

As far as something I use often, my upstairs tv is a 2007 LG LCD tv. I moved this past summer, before that it was the only tv in the house. Still use it all the time since it’s the only TV on the main floor
