Orion for 30$ or Celestron for 330$ ?

Hey experts!

I am asking for you humble opinion of best astronomy binoculars for the affordable price.

I may be new to this activity, but I already did some research and considering 2 models - Celestron 7x50 vs Orion 15x70.
Both are claimed as "for stargazing", both have the best ratings and suggested by many review websites. https://wildproofgear.com/best-binoc...or-stargazing/
As I learned these manufacturers are reliable as well.

My budget is okay to afford smth under 400$, but the question is - do I need such powerful binocs like Orion? From the other hand a 29.99 device doesn't look reliable and long lasting, and especially it doesn't seem to be an "astronomy" when there are some 2000$+ options like swarowski.

Can a 30$ and a 2000$ bucks items both have the same functions?
