It failed, no need to dance around the subject. It was a very expensive demo product, and nobody wants it.
I don’t see how this is a failure, because I don’t see this as a legitimate push for adoption.
This was a device that cost as much as a used car, with no real pre release applications, and virtually no preemptive dev kits. The only thing I can see that as is an attempt to mass test a new device type with early adopters.
Every single review I saw said the same thing. Its amazing tech, with a big price tag and nobody knew who is it for. The magic wore off pretty quickly and nobody wanted to use it long term.
Would a mass test have this kind of marketing though?
It’s Apple dude… who the fuck knows, lol.
Also, I didn’t really see much marketing. But that may just be my pervasive Adblocking.
