It just shows who the player with the stronger hand is... if you have to go making negative ads like these it's pretty obvious you've got some major issues with your own product.

They should be selling based on the merits of their own product, not based on the implied shortcomings of others.

It's along the lines of BMW ads versus Ford ads. BMW is "The Ultimate Driving Machine", because their product stands strong on it's own. And Ford is "Have you driven a Ford lately?". It's along the lines of saying "We know everyone thinks we suck... can you come back and give us another try? Please?" Oh and let's not forget about Chrysler's "Imported from Detroit" slogan. It's like they're saying "We know BMW, Audi, and Mercedes make better cars than we do... but we're going to try to use the 'import' wording creatively to lend some cred to our crappy widget factory..."

Apple doesn't talk about their competition. Samsung should take a tip.

Let me guess, you own an iphone right?

This is a marketing strategy that has been used since day dot and lately more brands are doing a great job of being creative with it. So enjoy it and don't try to read anything into it.

Thing is that won't work with brainwashed apple fanboys. Those sheep just assume iphone is best no matter what. So they try it this way.

Aren't the merits of their product the shortcomings of Apple's? Perhaps you need to watch it again, they were talking about all the things you can do with it. Apple doesn't because they can't?

You are wrong, this ad is a clever strategised ad, and more importantly, everyone that watches it will go 'oh yeah, can't argue with that', it will create a buzz. Also, the fact is the GS3 is a better phone... i love apple, but it simply is.

Scathing.

I had to doubletake when I heard what was in the iPhone 5, and I was thinking "okaaaaay -- my droid has been doing that shit already for a long time. Big fuckin deal."

---and some Apple fucktard has no clue about that.

Fanboy alert! They both seem to be pretty similar phones as far as specs go. The samsung is better hands down though because it's more versatile. You can do so much more with an android phone without the limitations to apple products that the iphone has. Want to watch a movie? Better convert it to MP4 first! Want to hook it up to your TV? or get a charger? Better get a apple only cable. Hell, not only do they not work with other phones but you can't even use your old iphone cables.

Use a custom launcher or install a custom rom with the Samsung UI baked in.

This is all possible with Android, which is pretty much the point of the fucking ad. You can do more with Android that you can with your iOS install.

I love Apple. I use both a MacBook and an Iphone. I always find your posts to be well thought out and very insightful, but I think you are forgetting Apple's key advertising platform, The "I'm a PC, and I'm a Mac" ones. They did exactly that, pointed to the flaws in PC's.

People who prefer the Iphone's GUI will buy again. So what that they might not have all the gadgets of the GalaxyS III. I would guess that a vast majority of the consumers out there won't use them all anyways. They just like to point out that they have them, and could use them if they actually had a reason to or remembered about them. I like Mac because its simple to use and, in my own experience, never puts a foot wrong and has never let me down. I subscribe to the "if it aint broke, don't fix it mentality, and apparently don't mind that I live in Apple's sandbox.

I should also say that the commercial just seemed a little snide, and not in a funny kind of way.

So your saying that Samsung makes a better phone, but they shouldn't point out all of the faults of their competitor? Why not?

For years everyone told me the iPhone was the better phone. So, eventually I broke down and got one. And you know what... The truth is the dame iPhone just didn't compare to my Android phone, so I went back. Everything the iPhone does my Android does, and more, and with a bigger screen.

One of my Apple friends was telling me about the recent OS upgrade he had to pay for and how he could set up an appointment on his computer and have it show up on his cell phone? Wow, that's impressive. My wife and I have been doing this with Android since they first came out. She updates her plans on her computer or phone and it shows up on my phone.

And for reasons I cannot understand our iPhone keeps looking for a wifi connection. It's a fucking cell phone - why the fuck does it need a wifi connection?

Ad was very creative, you're extremely naive if you think Apple doesn't emphasize what their competition doesn't have.

uh.... hummmmm... buy a vowel Bro... apple is not sold on the merits of the product at all Noah... apple products are sold on hype and a loyal fanbase... which is based COMPLETELY on the implied shortcomings of others.

seriously, how else could anyone sell outdated technology at an inflated price? :2 cents:

I drank the Apple Koolaid a while back but I am never going to be one of those that lines up or has to have the newest phone straight away. My BF is an Andriod guy and I keep feeling like I should give it a try but I can't get myself to part with the iPhone. They do have their control over me, I admit.

You can set it to only join known networks, and that will eliminate the issue. That bugged me too at first.

Regarding the appointment thing... all smart phones have done that since the dawn of smart phones.

Okay okay okay... I completely forgot about that ad.

I think that was probably the stupidest commercial I've ever seen.

And since I'm being accused of being an Apple fan boy (ha ha... ha)... I only use PC's. My wife has a Mac and it hasn't been turned on in the past year.

Anyway... this shit is really out of control. Since when did your gadgets become a fucking religion?

Jesus Christ... I think everyone in this entire thread is throwing fanboy accusations at me now. I'm a pretty objective dude... and yes, everything you're saying is correct. I weighed all of these pro's / con's before I bought what I have.

I fully understand the limitations of Apple products. Yes, they lock you into an ecosystem that is fairly limiting. Yes, they have stupid connectors that they charge a lot of money for. Yes, iTunes totally sucks. Yes, the phone doesn't have features that it clearly should.

But IN MY OPINION... it's still the most polished, well designed device you can buy. iOS may not have the ability to do all sorts of things you can do with ICS or Jelly Bean... but it's more slick. And I do realize I'm paying the Apple tax. :)
