What are the worst tech purchases you or your family have ever made?
I watched a video recently and wanted to know what other have bought over the years.

I bought an after-market touchscreen entertainment/navigation unit for my 2008 car from some online place selling cheap Chinese gear.
It was so slow it was nigh on useless. I’d be halfway home before the maps would finally start, and Spotify would just crash. I pulled it out after a few weeks and went back to the stock unit.
Hey I did the same! Thought hey I know tech, I know car audio, this will be great. It wasn’t. Some bottom of the barrel android tablet that barely run a music player let alone navigation. Ended up putting back the stock and getting a 15 dollar phone mount instead. Worked way better.
How the fuck.
I got a used one for 100 eur and it’s better than that, damn
I bought one of these. It’s a bit clunky, but it was the best option for my application because it uses the stock touchscreen from the infotainment system instead of the aftermarket stereo which would have 2 screens on top of each other and look shitty. It’s not cheap, and I wish it was a little more polished, but it does everything I need it to.

Thanks, but I’m fine with my Quadlock phone mount and an aux jack. (I still have a phone with a 3.5mm headphone jack.)
Nice. R.i.p the 3.5 mm. Miss that shit
