If you were thinking buy one of Nest's smart thermostats in one of the Apple Store or order it directly from the Apple online store, forget about the idea because these have stopped being sold in all Apple stores.

The company confirmed to a well-known website that it had withdrawn the product from the web, considered by many to be the first smart accessory dedicated to the home that Apple had sold. This decision has been precipitated by the products that have arrived based on Apple's HomeKit platform and that currently some of them are already available for purchase, so the company you don't want competition with third-party systems.

Actually the product stopped selling earlier this month But you have to remember that Apple was one of the first companies to sell Nest when it debuted in 2011. It is not surprising that today it has already been replaced by the first HomeKit thermostat, the ecobee 3.

Whereas Google recently announced a platform HomeKit's competitor named Brillo, it is unlikely that Nest is going to become compatible at any time with HomeKit with very slim chances for this to occur, however it will be the centerpiece for now of Google's vision of a smart home.

This is not the first time that Apple stops selling a product in its stores due to possible competition with your productsLet's remember the case of the Apple Watch and the Healthkit platform where shortly after introducing them, Fitbit and Jawbone stopped selling to users, or the recent dispute between Bose and Beats audio that caused Apple to stop selling Bose products for a season, although now it is do what.
