Apple is probably the most successful technology company of all time, with the iPhone, iPad and Mac computers selling worldwide, and not only being expensive but also carrying their own values of faith, many people believe that Apple products are the best. Of course, there have been some products in Apple’s decades of development that have been less than successful, and the Slahgeare website has recently made a selection of the worst Apple products ever.
The result of the first place is Apple’s Hockey Puck mouse, this product is not rare, and are launched in 1998, with the iMac G3 released at the time, but because the design does not work, the function is not very good, resulting in a strange reputation, less than a year was taken off the shelves, 30% of users think this is Apple’s worst product.
The Apple Butterfly Keyboard, which triggered a class action lawsuit a few years ago, ranked as Apple’s second-worst product with 27.71% of the votes. This is something many netizens may have experienced, as this butterfly keyboard was originally an innovation that Apple was proud of, yet the failure rate was constant.
Previous statistics also showed that the 2016 MacBook Pro had a keyboard failure rate of 11.8%, while the MBP II butterfly keyboard of the 2017 model had a failure rate of 8.1% as of now, almost twice as high as the traditional scissor-foot keyboard.
Apple eventually abandoned this keyboard as well, and recent generations of the Wonder Control keyboard have returned to the classic scissor-foot design.
The third worst product in Apple’s history was the iPod dock, introduced in 2006 for $349, which also doubled as a speaker, but the product still met its Waterloo and was withdrawn from the market within 18.
