So I want to buy a telescope for the first time and I have been overwhelmed with all the information I've found, some contradictory. I think a refractor would be best for me because I want something simple to setup and use but I'm open to other ideas if there is a better option. I am in the USA and my budget is $150-300. My main goal is to see Jupiter and Saturn with some detail. I know it won't look amazing or anything but I'd like to see some of the bands/great red spot and the rings of Saturn with some clarity. I probably won't buy another telescope for a long time. Would any of these three be able to do that or any advice on a first time telescope purchase? Also, any thoughts on an AZ mount vs. EQ mount for a beginner? https://www.amazon.com/Celestron-21048-PowerSeeker-80EQ-Telescope/dp/B0007UQNKO/ref=pd_ybh_a_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DFFNKG3YT00CJVDG1WZR https://www.amazon.com/Gskyer-Telescope-Astronomical-Refractor-Technology/dp/B00WCG3UOS/ref=pd_ybh_a_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DFFNKG3YT00CJVDG1WZR https://www.amazon.com/Celestron-22065-Master-Refractor-Telescope/dp/B01E5DVONO/ref=sr_1_3?crid=BY1T2SRQ8TNI&dchild=1&keywords=120mm+refractor+telescope&qid=1609635727&sprefix=120mm+refr%2Caps%2C203&sr=8-3
