Not sure why you are being downvoted. This is obviously a real dynamic. Expensive tech gear is somewhat like an entry level luxury vehicle for the masses. You’re not seriously rich enough for a S-Class Benz, but you could live that aspiration via older model CLA.

So yeah, not quite rich enough to buy a house in major cities, but hey, you can certainly splurge on this kind of stuff.
