As we can see, the Apple Watch had two major peaks that match the keynote on March 9 in which prices and its release date is revealed, and the launch day on 24 April. After this, we can see how the search trend gradually decays the past weeks, only to recover slightly in recent days.
In turn, the iPod maintains a uniform trend with small peaks and declines search, but you can see a positive trend in recent days. It is curious at least the iPod right now is look no further than the Apple Watch in Google when the company was preparing to bury almost entirely his legendary music player.

These data have been interpreted by the analyst Andy Hargreaves, who says that confidence in the product “is diminishing.” Explains the analyst, “the Apple Watch need a large increase in functionality to overcome initial criticism, if it hopes to become a mass device.”
Of course, as we read in Cult of Mac, it’s too early to know whether Apple Watch will be a successful product as was the iPhone, iPad or iPod itself, though of course Google trends are not the best reference to measure the success or failure of a product.
