Samsung's poke at Apple picked as one of December's most remembered T.V. ads
Share:
The Samsung ad was the only smartphone related commercial in the Top Ten with a score of 150. That means that the ad is 1.5 times as memorable as the average television commercial. Victoria's Secret had the most remembered ad in December with a lingerie ad that had a score of 194.
Apple so far has not retaliated against Samsung in the court of broadcasting, although the Cupertino based firm has surely gone after Samsung in the court of law. The Korean based manufacturer might have decided to put these ads on hiatus after the recent violence that occurred in China. Lines of people waiting to purchase the Apple iPhone 4S threw eggs and fought with the police over Apple's decision to delay opening the doors at one of its Apple Stores in the country.

It was advertising genius. Im sure it might have woke up a few sheep, or at least angered them :)

LOL I wonder how Apple can laugh at Samsung..
IPhone got bigger screen? Nope.
Faster processor? Nope.
Faster networking? Nope.
Oh oh I know - the iPhone is the only smartphone in the world with an app store on it! Oh wait.. nope as well.
Maybe the iPhone has an Apple-exclusive music store? What? MP3? What MP3? Oh you mean the most popular music format in the world which can be played by any app on any Android device downloaded from anywhere? Nope again then.
What about.. Nope? Are you sure? OK.
And.. Nope? Are you serious? But I thought that the iPhone is the only phone with Multi-touch
But surely.. What do you mean it can change it's keyboard layout? But.. Nope? Ah damnit!!
Wait what? Widgets? Live wallpapers? What are those? Oh that. Yeah.. that. I see that's umm.. that's nice.. Umm.. how much did you say that Galaxy S2 costs?
:)

I love this commercial, I spent almost 3 years selling Androids and iPhones and this commercial is so accurate. Only 3 types of people buy iPhones, 1. The person who has absolutely no idea how to operate a computer and smartphone and wants something so simple they do not have to exhort any kind of effort to learn about. 2. Someone who is so insecure about themselves they believe if they get a iPhone, people will see them with a iPhone and they will begin to gain confidence about themselves. 3 The person who is a Apple fanboy till the day they die and looks down on others who purchase other smartphones, they often believe apple products are far more superior than other smartphones and computers. They are usually pretty narcissistic.

#3 are the people that I hate
#2 are the majority of the iPhone consumers cuz "people buy iPhones just cuz its an iPhone," where's the logic in that?
But i respect the people that buy it because of their preferences.

My Dad is a 1, my Mom has a Droid X2, I asked her why she prefers Androids, she said "Because I know how to use a computer" that and she doesn't like Apple products, she's encountered them and doesn't like them.
