Top five exaggerated technology products iPad in column

Top five exaggerated technology products iPad in column Beijing December 2 news, according to foreign media reports, after experiencing the pain caused by the economic crisis in 2009, the pace of innovation in the global science and technology industry in 2010 once again accelerated. The most obvious sign of the recovery of the science and technology industry in 2010 was the continuous emergence of new products, new technologies and new ideas. It once again broke through the old boundaries and made people re-recognize the current state of science and technology.

However, innovation also means that it needs to take corresponding risks. There are indeed some tragic end-products that have previously done a lot of propaganda. Of course, some of the new products that have achieved market success are considered to be exaggerating their actual functions.

The following are the five major exaggerated technology products listed by foreign media in 2010:

First place: 3D TVs debuted at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January this year to the traditional shopping season at the end of the year. 3D TV has always been an outstanding product of next-generation TVs that TV makers are eagerly pursuing. As long as consumers buy a high-quality 3D TV and wear professional glasses, they can get a 3D TV viewing experience. However, the problem is that neither the technology industry nor the average consumer is buying the 3D TV concept.

In January of this year, it is clear that major TV manufacturers are viewing 3D TV as a booster to keep consumers buying new TV products, and they hope that 3D TV will become a replacement for flat-panel TVs that have just entered consumers' homes. The industry insiders pointed out at CES that consumers would not want to replace the flat-panel TVs they just purchased in recent years with 3D TVs, not to mention the need to wear 3D glasses in the living room to get a 3D viewing experience. . However, this year's traditional shopping season, major retailers including Best Buy and Costco still want to sell 3D television concepts to consumers through rumors. This is more ostentatious than Microsoft Kinect's promotion. We believe that most consumers who understand technology will not choose 3D TV.

Second place: Google TV

The most disappointing technology product in 2010 may be Google TV. If Google’s original intention was not to try to make the television experience online, but to devote Android apps to large flat-panel displays from the very beginning, then Google TV would have been a very successful product.

However, Google is still rushing to just connect Internet video with traditional cable or satellite TV through set-top boxes, enabling Google TV to have the ability to search online content and watch streaming video online. Unfortunately, users are confused by Google TV's viewing experience and cannot even tolerate their tedious operations. If users really want to browse web pages or watch online videos on a large flat-screen TV, then simply connecting a personal computer or laptop to a TV can be a simple matter of implementation. Why buy Google TV?

Third place: Samsung Galaxy Tab Tablet PC The most innovative feature of the Samsung Galaxy Tab is that it eventually makes Samsung the first manufacturer to launch an Android tablet. In 2010, we heard too many reports about the upcoming listing of multiple Android tablets, but in the end they only waited for a Samsung Galaxy Tab product. This is because Google did not launch an Android operating system optimized for tablet PCs. This undoubtedly poured cold water on various computer makers who attempted to launch tablets.

Although Samsung finally launched the Galaxy Tab, and its hardware is also rated as first-rate, it is undeniable that its software equipment needs to be improved and its pricing is too high. Although the Samsung Galaxy Tab was shaped as the first true rival of the Apple iPad, we suggested that the price of tablet PCs decline in the first half of next year, Google launches the tablet optimized Android system and other large PC makers to launch their own Android tablets later come to a conclusion.

Fourth place: Microsoft Kinect

Bill Gates has been promoting Microsoft Kinect somatosensory peripherals for several years, even before the product was named. When users play games, Kinect can indeed provide an extraordinary gaming experience. However, in the direct sunlight room, Kinect's role will be overshadowed. Under strong light, its facial recognition function becomes extremely ridiculous, and the menu navigation function of its action interface is also very slow.

Kinect is a very creative product, but it is also a product that has been over-hyped by the media.

Fifth place: Apple iPad

This may be our most blamed choice, but Apple iPad should really exaggerate technology products. Although the iPad created 7 million miracles in the industry during the first six months of the IPO market, no one product has surpassed the iPad for the past decade.

However, the iPad has indeed been over-exaggerated in terms of actual functionality and has been promoted to the cutting edge of technology products, so that too many consumers are viewing it as a complete replacement for notebook computers. And this is not the case. The iPad can only play the role of a personal computer companion. As the iPad continues to erode the market share of low-end laptops (especially netbooks), we must clearly realize that most of its buyers are looking for another, more portable computer device. In the corporate user market, the iPad is really well-suited for corporate executives, information consultants, and field investigators who work outdoors all day. However, the iPad is not suitable for business people who need to sit in the office and effectively complete office tasks. That's a large part of the user base.
