The branch prediction of the P4 was extremely good. The problem with the P4 was the long pipelines that took a long time to empty when a branch prediction failed.
Other problems of the P4 was the high price for the Rambus memory in the beginning. Intel wanted to get around that and created the MTH, which made SDR ram compatible with the Rambus interface. The MTH was very slow and bugged that it eventually had to be recalled.

From a purely "bad product" point of view, Itanium is sorely missing (as pointed by everyone). Maybe the use of Rambus memory could get a honorable mention.
But there were also several noteworthy bugs:
-FDiv Bug on early original Pentiums.
-SDRAM i820 motherboard recall.
-Pentium !!! 1.13GHz recall.
-6 Series chipset (for Sandy Bridge) recall.
-Self-bricking Atom C2000...

For those asking about the Itanium - we have a dedicated video on it right here, because it was just THAT bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQTSxLURyyE Thanks for watching!
