VIDEO: Samsung is Still Making Fun of Apple in Ads
Samsung is still having fun with the brand-loyalty displayed by Apple fans.
Back in November, Samsung released a series of commercials poking fun at Apple fans and the fact that they're willing to line up for hours to be the first to get their hands on the latest iteration of the iPhone. It seems Samsung is continuing with the series, as the company has just released another commercial along the same vein, and this one focuses on poor battery life, turn-by-turn navigation and the fact that a lot of new Apple products looks the same as the last version.

Lol LOVING IT
"aahhhhh....it looks like the last years phone" lol
funny, but the text-to-speech ad was kinda stupid. I know Siri is a server based app, but it doesnt change that it has a very similar function.
Also making ads about apps on your phone is stupid too, since whether you like it or not theres likely a similar app in the apple store. They should make apps about the hardware superiorities in the galaxy phones. better glass, better interface, better freeness, better battery, better camera, better graphics, etc(whichever may be true, just listing options).
I liked alot more the ads about the tablet apple tried to stop. Those were better. Still funny though seeing how Samsung depicts clueless apple fanboys.
Samsung = Insecure much???They should be focusing on outclassing the competition and informing consumers about the high quality of their products and not why they think iPhone users are douche bags. These are phones, not the presidential primaries/elections.
Remember the "I'm a PC and I'm a Mac" ads? They get into people's mind, that's why Samsung is doing them. Don't be so serious about it
I'm just waiting for Apples comeback to laugh some more.
Cheers!

I do mostly agree, but there is a ridiculous amount of iPhone users who think Siri is revolutionary for allowing to text by talking into the phone, which already existed for a long time on Android.

That's the idea. They're showing that while apple users have to go through a third party and pay to get it, that their phone has it as a built in feature.

They aren't highlighting apple users douchebaggery (They don't need any help. lol) They're higlighting how apple users are caged behind the restrictions of apple products, such as third party apps, low battery life, and low generation to generation innovation.

In android it's built in the keyboard so you can use it everywhere, while siri is just for texting people (and web search) AFAIK...
That guy wanted to use twitter, can siri help you tweet ?
Wow, that commercial made me want to buy a relatively obscure tablet instead of an iPad. I'm willing to look past the lagginess, poor battery life, and poor quality apps in exchange for being able to do really useful things like have moving wallpaper.

Few days old, but better late than never.
The comments are just as funny as the ad!!!
looks like this news is being watched mostly by apple fanboys lol

So, do you feel Apple making a whole marketing campaign for he iphone 4s based around the features of an app , Siri was stupid as well?
For some reason, I am thinking of Bill Cosby. "When you're the #2 smartphone, the #3, or the #29, who are you going to compare yourself to when you want convince people you are in the big leagues?" Anyone remember those Coke commercials?
I don't care that my phone 'looks' like last years model. First of all, I use it for what it does, not for what it looks like. Second, I upgrade at 2 year intervals anyway (normally). In fact, other than making it thinner, they could just keep reusing this design, and it would not bother me one bit. I guess Samsung wants the vain users. Must be why the ad doesn't appeal to me.
Finally, once you are invested into a platform with applications (iOS, Android, Windows, OSX, Linux- it doesn't matter), switching becomes more trouble and often more money than it is worth.
The white Dragon ... Traditionally, the need fire!

yea, the best way to get people to look at you is to but heads with apple, because most people though the iphone 4 and the were 4g, those kind of people need to have a slap in the face like these comertials to actually get it.

i remember the who would you higher for a job parody of that comertial, that made me lol more than the comertials themselves.
Well who is laughing now?

I would like to see the government take that money from Apple's hands
It seems to be really working. Apple just doubled their iPhone sales, and have a staggering 100 Billion in cash.
Samsung better be careful, if they irritate someone at Apple, they could get eaten. 100 Billion in cash is just mind blowing.
Samsung trying to make it light hearted effort to bash uber Apple fans. Tho yall can bash Apple and forget its a great American Company.
The only thing particularly great about Apple as a company is it's a amazing litigation team...
Samdung just got dungk'd with Apple's earnings release. The voice ad is just dumb especially when Apple has Siri. The other is better but I'm still of the mind that it's a bad idea to show an ad where brand loyalty is the thing you're trying to pan. Some of those line-waiters are drooling fanboys while others just appreciate a really great product. Once again, you can hate if you want but the $$$ don't lie. That said, it's nice to see someone from the droid sphere making ads that do something besides brain-dead ads with battle scenes and chicks fighting robots that basically do nothing besides try and communicate, "We rockzzz!!!11!!one!!!11"
Lame. How many years has Pepsi had their taste test challenge with Coke? Or Burger King comparing their flame broiled burgers to McDonald's fried?
People don't like these types of ads. All they really do is make the fanboys happy that their daddy is making fun of another company they despise.
Am already an Apple hater with the amount of ridiculous lawsuit/patent trolling they did over the past months.
The only thing I don't like about these ads is they never mention iphone by name. We all know who they're talking about but I there is no need to be subtle. Go for throats samsung.
As an add on to my last comment, sammy needs to mention iphone and its fans my name. It is our national civic duty to make apple users feel like the gullible sheep they are.
They keep pumping out these ads and apple's sales are only going up. Interesting...

I don't see the logic in your statement.
For those of you posting Apple's earnings last quarter, Samsung also had a record year: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13506_3- [...] arter-yet/
Just because quarter sales break records doesn't mean they are beating the competition, overall market trends also factor in. A direct comparison of handset sales are the only way to compare the two companies in the mobile phone market.
