I use the new device.

“Device” in Japanese is 装置 (sōchi).

Describes a set of parts arranged to carry out a particular function, from a simple tool to complex equipment.

この装置は電池で動きます。ko no sō chi wa den chi de ugo ki ma su

This device runs on batteries.

In technical Japanese, 装置 (sōchi) often names an apparatus designed for one job, so it sounds more specialized than the broad English word device in many everyday contexts.
