If its any consolation, nearly all new tech gadgets are shit anymore, still more are neat for a bit then slowly turn to shit in time, and others get abandoned and become theater props.
If your fear you're missing out, I assure you that is merely a perception, and you'd be disappointed if you tried most of that stuff. In my experience, any new tech in the past 10+ years that looked interesting ended up looking less interesting the more I learned about it, to the point I was actively disinterested before I was even done with my research on it.
