1.AppleⅢ（1980-1981）
This is Apple's first without its co-founder Steve Wozniak (Steve Wozniak) participated in the design of computers.

Original Lisa users only have to pay $ 1500 to buy a $ 4,100 worth of Mac Plus.
3. Apple Macintosh Portable（1989-1991）

4.Apple Newton（1993-1998）
Newton's Apple first launched the Tablet, but because of the poor battery life and poor screen displays failed. In addition, the handwriting recognition feature is also unsatisfactory, even the United States well-known Simpsons cartoons Newton couldn't be throwing up slot. However, this does not mean that this product is worthless. At least, it plays a lead role in the operating system design for the future, but also for people to understand what is a Tablet PC for the first time.
5. Apple Pippin（1995-1996）
When the Apple Pippin, and Nintendo, Sega games consoles have been occupied as early as the market opportunity and, therefore, this product did not gain public attention.

7. Apple eMate（1997-1998）
EMate is a very good product, Apple's PowerBook series is the product-prototyping. Because this laptop is aimed at the field of education has been introduced and was therefore not sold on a large scale, its development was limited. And never released Apple eMate actual sales.
8. the Hockey Puck mouse (1998-2000)
This mouse looks like a disc. Due to the smaller and round, and it is not easy to operate. Two years after its listing, may soon be unavailable.
9. Power Mac g4 Cube（2000-2001）

10. U2 iPod（2004-2004）
This is a collaboration between Apple and U2 Band. Apple launched a U2 iPod and iTunes exclusive released their single ' Vertigo '.

人有失手马有失蹄：美媒盘点苹果历史上10大败笔 - 苹果,败笔产品 - IT资讯人有失手马有失蹄：美媒盘点苹果历史上10大败笔
据美国商业内幕网报道，在人们印象中，苹果一直是创新和潮流的代表。苹果曾经推出iPod、iPhone、iPad以及Macbook等一系列令人惊艳的产品。正所谓智者千虑必有一失，并不是苹果的每个创意都是那样的成功。这里为大家总结了10款苹果历史上的败笔产品。
这是苹果历史上第一台没有其创始人之一史蒂夫·沃兹尼亚克（Steve Wozniak）参与设计的电脑。结果显而易见，那就是这台电脑不但外形看起来笨重，同时主板温度偏高，导致电脑频繁死机。除此之外，其芯片也会常从卡槽中弹出来，导致整个系统运行出现问题。
Lisa是苹果在上世纪80年代推出的一款个人电脑。它不仅运行速度慢，同时操作起来也并不是很方便。然而它的价格却高得惊人。据悉，在刚推出时，其售价高达9995美元。最终，苹果在1986年放弃了Lisa，同时推出了以旧换新的活动。原Lisa用户只需支付1500美元就可以换购一台价值4100美元的Mac Plus。
这款电脑的最大缺陷在于电池，经其常会发生接通电源但仍然开不了机的情况。此外，虽然它的名字为“Portable”（便携），但实际上它足足有16磅那么重。
Newton应该算是苹果最早推出的平板电脑了，但是由于电池续航能力差以及糟糕的屏幕显示而以失败告终。此外，其手写识别功能也差强人意，连美国著名动画片《辛普森一家》也忍不住对Newton进行了吐槽。然而，这些都并不代表这款产品毫无价值。至少，它为未来的操作系统设计起到了引导作用，同时也让人们第一次了解何为平板电脑。
当苹果推出Pippin时，任天堂、世嘉游戏机等已经早在市场上占领先机，因此，这款产品并未得到大众的关注。Pippin的发售价为600美元，苹果对其第一年的销量预期为30万台，然而，实际上Pippin仅售出了1.2万到4.2万台。
6.20周年纪念版Mac（1996-1997）
为了纪念公司成立20周年，苹果推出了限量版的Mac个人电脑，定价为8000美元。虽然其销量并不好，但是却受到了一些收藏家的亲睐。在2010，一台整套的20周年纪念版Mac仍然卖到了1000美元。
eMate其实是一款非常不错的产品，苹果的PowerBook系列就是以这款产品为原型设计的。由于这款笔记本电脑是针对教育领域而推出的，因此并未在大范围进行销售，其发展受到限制。而苹果也从未公布eMate的实际销量。
8. Hockey Puck鼠标（1998-2000）
这款鼠标的外形看起来像一个光盘。由于尺寸比较小同时又是圆形，因此人们操作起来十分不方便。其在上市两年后，就停产了。
虽然这款产品创意十足，但是其价格却过于昂贵，而且显示器还需要另外购买。与此同时，早期的Power Mac g4 Cube在制作上也有一定的缺陷，导致其出现了散热，以及外壳开裂的问题。
这是苹果与U2乐队之间的一次合作。苹果推出一款U2 iPod，并通过iTunes独家发布其单曲《Vertigo》。然而可惜的是，这款产品除了外观上的改变以及内置的U2专辑歌曲外，在其他功能上与之前推出的iPod并无差别。除此之外，由于为限量版产品，因此其价格也比一般iPod贵50美元。最终，这款产品的市场反应并未达到预期。
