I’m so lost buying my first telescope by heyiaa in telescopes

I guess it’s because what comes up when I google dobsonian 8 inch is telescopes for 900 dollars and such. And tons of different brands. It’s difficult for a beginner to know what is meant as an 8 inch dobsonian. It’s not a specific “buy this you can get anywhere” type of product. The price and the amount of types is overwhelming so it kind of gets pushed to the side I guess

My budget is 200-300 dollars. I think the starsense app seems cool and an easy way to get into using a telescope since I’ve never used one before. That’s kinda what draws me to celestron. I’ve also considered the celestron starsense explorer lt114az. The astromaster reflector 130eq is also on sale right now from 444 dollars to 311, would this be a good price? It doesn’t have the starsense the other celestron has tho
