Upgrade the bike, or buy a new bike?

Hi all,

I'm at an indecision.

I have a 2018 Diamondback Atroz 2 with a few upgrades, pedals, grips, Debonair rear shock and nice tires.
But, the brakes are starting to lose their punch.
I'm sure I could just swap pads out and would be back to normal, or I can upgrade to perhaps to some M8000 brakes from Shimano.
Or, I could buy a new bike (The Diamondback Release 2 is on my radar).
What would you guys do in my situation? The bike rides great, pedaling isn't the best, but otherwise it is in great shape.
