Hi Justin,
Everyone has provided excellent advice regarding a first scope.
Binos are great for starting off but I found you want more after the first year of owning them. The best option is to grab a pair of binos and a cheap dob to start off with. A tripod for the bino helps as well as I found hand holding the binos tireing after a period of time. If you do get a tripod I would get something in around 10x70mm or 15x70mm for the binos.
I found a goto dob an excellent scope for me starting but this will be out of your budget.
I would steer away from the wifi smartphone controls as I have seen others struggle to align and control the scope.
Feel free to PM me if you have more questions.
Regards,
M11
