Hey my birthday is coming up at the end of april and i have been wanting to get a new telescope or a pair of astronomical binoculars. I already have a telescope. But its cheap and not very good.

I was wondreing what are the pros and cons of getting binculars vs a new telescope.

I love the porotbialitiy of the binuculars but i also adore seeing other planets as a teleescope would do.

well here is my telescope

If i were to get binoculars cheap pills that would be better than this how much would i expect to spend or should i just get a new telesope?
