The product Apple gave up on, built twice in Hangzhou
Two uploads with the same title went up on the same day, and together they have passed 13 million views in five days.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
We Built the Product Apple Gave Up On...
"We Built the Product Apple Gave Up On..." is the only title HTX Studio used this week, and it appears twice. Both videos went up on the same day under identical names, and neither title nor facts reveal which abandoned Apple idea the team took on. The ellipsis keeps that secret for the click. It is a very HTX premise all the same: the DIY crew from Hangzhou bills its work as fun, creative tech, and building something a trillion-dollar company walked away from fits that neatly.
The two copies are not moving in step. One started a little faster and has kept a clearer lead, while the other has cooled more quickly. Together they are doing the bulk of the channel's work. Behind them, "We Built This to Sleep at Work…" is still collecting steady views six weeks after it went up.
The audience is growing briskly, with about 30,000 new subscribers a day, and HTX sits third by subscribers among similar tech and gadget channels. Hayls World is running above its usual pace, Bitwit is well below its own, and Jonathan Morrison is holding almost exactly steady.
