Alright, tech history buffs and nostalgia nerds, let’s dive into the gadget graveyard! We're unearthing those tech products from 2000 to 2020 that promised us the world but delivered… well, not so much. Get ready for a trip down memory lane filled with head-scratching flops and 'what were they thinking?' moments.

1. Segway (2001)

Okay, first up, the Segway. Remember when everyone thought this personal transporter was going to revolutionize urban travel? Cities would be filled with people gliding around on these things, or so they said. Instead, it became a slightly dorky tourist attraction and a mall cop's ride of choice. Let’s be real, the price tag was insane, and who really wanted to look like they were perpetually stuck in a video game?

2. Microsoft Zune (2006)

Ah, the Zune. Microsoft’s attempt to dethrone the iPod. It wasn’t a bad product, TBH. It had some cool features like wireless sharing of songs (remember squirt?), but it was too little, too late. Apple had already won the music player war, and the Zune just couldn't catch up. It’s like showing up to a party hours after everyone’s already gone home. Been there, done that, Microsoft.

3. Google Glass (2013)

Google Glass! What a concept. Wearable tech that puts the internet right in front of your eyes. Sounds amazing, right? Except, it made you look like a cyborg with a serious fashion malfunction. Plus, privacy concerns were through the roof. People were worried about being secretly recorded everywhere they went. Google Glass was ahead of its time, but it definitely crashed and burned. BTW, how wild is this that people were so worried about privacy THEN?!

4. Amazon Fire Phone (2014)

Amazon decided to jump into the smartphone game with the Fire Phone. It had some gimmicky features like dynamic perspective, which was supposed to give you a 3D experience without glasses. But it was clunky, the app selection was weak, and it was just… meh. Even a massive price cut couldn't save it. The Fire Phone went up in flames pretty quickly, which is a shame. I was hyped!

5. Juicero (2016)

And now for something completely ridiculous: Juicero. This Wi-Fi-connected juicer squeezed pre-packaged juice packs. The catch? You could literally squeeze the juice packs with your bare hands and get the same result. It was a $400 solution to a problem that didn't exist. Juicero became the poster child for Silicon Valley excess and the absurdity of some tech startups. I know — just stay with me.

So, there you have it – a quick peek at some failed tech products we almost forgot. These gadgets might not have changed the world, but they definitely gave us some good laughs and a reminder that not every tech innovation is a winner. What are some other tech flops you remember? Let’s reminisce in the comments!
