I sure didn't care much for Apple's attempt to copy-cat the Echo Dots with their HomePod smart speakers. Too little, too late, and nobody I know was that excited to be able to ask Siri things from one, anyplace in their home. I guess it might have been ok if you paid for an Apple Music subscription already and wanted to be able to play songs on command, streaming from it? But especially having already bought a couple of Sonos products by then, it was underwhelming to me.
The Apple watch was perfectly ok, yet not real exciting. My ex-wife bought me the "series 0" on launch day as an anniversary gift, assuming I'd love it. And in reality? It wound up just being an item I hung onto a lot longer than I wanted to, just because I didn't want to upset her that I wasn't using it.
I kept having issues with Apple's bands breaking my skin out if I wore an Apple watch every day, and the leather third-party band I tried that worked better in that regard never really looked that good with it.
I upgraded my Apple watch every 3 generations after that, but my series 6 just tends to sit on my nightstand, on its charging stand. I rarely even wear it anymore. It's just another gadget I might wear on some specific occasion where I think it might come in handy (like a business trip with meetings where it's unwelcome to take your phone out of your pocket to look at it, even if you're just checking the time).
I think Apple failed pretty badly with the latest iMacs too. The iMac was clearly part of Jobs' vision of what the staple desktop Mac should be. Since the original Macintosh, it was always about that "all in one" design with the display built into the box. But now, you can't even buy one with a 27" screen anymore?! And this is when big monitors and even curved displays are everywhere. Why not a 27" or even 32" iMac with curved screen, as a redesign of something more like the old "lampshade" iMac G4? There's really nothing even stylish/eye-catching about today's iMac. IMO, they don't even look good in most of their color options.
