Who would have thought that technology had lasted for decades should be eroded little by little and in the end had disappeared. In 2017 the majority of TV manufacturers such as Samsung, LG, and Sony has stopped supporting 3D TV. They reasoned that the 3D TV began to be abandoned by its users .

Let us discuss why the 3D TV users getting bored with this technology. Someone who wanted to see the 3D TV must wear special glasses to maximize the 3D effect. This is the thing that is often complained by consumers, these glasses make clumsy and often make the eyes feel strained .

Maybe that's the reason why Vizio, Sharp, and does not present TCL 3D TV at CES 2017. One of the most prestigious exhibition event in the world of technology. Instead, these companies are now more focused on producing TV 4K, Smart TVs, and Curve TV .

Three years after Apple stopped production of the iPod Classic, Apple has stopped production of the iPod Nano and Shuffle in July. The devices are an entertainment device that has a function similar to the MP3 .

Since the smartphone with storage (storage) jumbo, the value of sales of these devices continues to decline . Plus for 2 years since the device was released, Apple has never been renewed this device. So Apple iPod Shuffle and iPod Nano has always been entertainment devices that run independently or can only be run offline .

Google Tango is one of the most ambitious plan ever created by Google. Google Tango is a plan to develop the technology AR ( Augmented Reality ) becomes better. But alas, Google akhrinya himself who said that Google Tango will be discontinued on 1 March 2018 later.

The project was discontinued due to lack of applicants who are interested in Google Tango. However, Google has not given up simply because they are developing a new project called Arcore . Unlike the AR Tango, which focuses on hardware , Arcore is a project Augmented Reality which focuses on software .

Thus, AR technology will be used by almost all devices smartphone there is. Unlike Tango that require special devices such as Asus Zenfone AR that are currently not marketable.
