Insulting the very user base you are trying to attract with the ad? Doesn't seem like sound marketing in my book? Before u bring out the PC vs Mac ads, no the Mac guy never insulted the PC users in the ad, but the PCs themselves, a significant difference.

 

It is funny though. And paints an accurate picture of many apple fans.

The userbase shown in the video might not even consider anything non-apple. Those are rigid fanboys, buying anything that Apples dishes out year after year.

Many of the Apple fanboys dont even know that Galaxy S2 is much better than Iphone 4 in every aspect and costs less. Atleast by this ad they will realize something is there.

Aren't you talking like a fanboy yourself now? :scratchchin:

And because they choose Apple that makes their choice weak? I'm sorry, its not your lookout to worry what other people spend their money on or what other people consider "value" for them. Ever considered the possibility that whats better for you need not be for everyone else. U are comparing 2 platforms here. 2 platforms with very different ideologies and futures. So you're wrong in thinking everyone has to like an OS u like.

 

Besides, coming to the ad, it would've been a better ad if they chose to make fun of the iPhone itself and highlighted some of the features average people understand (4G isn't something your average TV viewer understands). Here, they've just made a nice joke and not really shown why exactly their phone is better except for one thing - big screen. Apparently Samsung is in the delusion that big screen = better screen.

^Nope, I always support a product which justifies its price. If it would have been some other phone instead of S2 which had same specs and same price, I would have got that.

 

But to proclaim that the S2 ( that you got just under a month ago ) is better than the iPhone 4 ( how long have you used one ) is utter fanboyism

Are you trolling? Seriously? Do I have to mention why S2 is better? There is a thing called benchmarks, specs etc. S2 whoops Iphone 4's a*s in every benchmark, I dont need stupid iTunes to add MP3s, I can transfer files via Bluetooth to any goddamn phone while keeping my phone in warranty, there are tons of things you can do in Android like launchers, custom roms etc which are unheard of in IOS. These are obvious reasons.

 

Now following are my additional points which might not appeal to everyone, but mattered for me:

 

I need a bigger display and lighter phone, S2>Iphone 4.

I wanted FM radio, S2>Iphone 4

I wanted better build quality, S2>Iphone 4

 

The only thing that Iphone 4 has better is sound quality and DPI.

 

More detailed info here: http://www.geeksyrup.com/tips/samsung-galaxy-s-2-vs-apple-iphone-4-comparison/

 

Iphone 4S is great, its better than S2 for now, as almost every IOS5 app is optimized for Dual Core. After ICS, expect S2 to come close to 4S if not better. But when cost and other restrictions of IOS are considered, S2/Moto Razr/ any dual core android with 8 MP cam is better option, for me and any sane person who knows what he wants.

Honestly today its all about mobile platforms and supporting ecosystems today. Hardware is similar for almost all high end phones. Look at Windows Phone 7. It runs on last year's hardware and is probably more butter smooth than most top end android devices today. Its all about how the platform leverages the hardware at hand.

 

The preferences come to OSes alone. Some like Android, others iOS. Windows Phone 7 also has its share of fans and rightly so.

Are you blind? Read my post, I never said S2>4S. 4S was not even considered by me thanks to its price.

My My. That wall of text. :ha:

 

Sire you jumped on the bandwagon late. Everyone and their mother knows the specs. But specs alone do not make a phone the best.

Maybe you could just say the "S2 is best for me" instead of representing the whole world. :giggle:

 

I personally have both and if my life depended on it, would use the iPhone4 over the S2.

Doesn't the below sentence convey the same feeling:

 

^Nope, I always support a product which justifies its price. If it would have been some other phone instead of S2 which had same specs and same price, I would have got that.

 

And you called me a fanboy for that.

Can you explain why? What are those features which make you want to use Iphone 4 over S2?

please point out where have i written 4S, then we will decide who is blind, actually dumb in this case

so now you will decide what is better for other people, awesome. Also if you meant people LIKE you, then it is a singleton.
