The original post implies that Samsung was copying Apple in their advertisements. However, other than using the same child actor, the commercials are completely different.
Got it.. apple copies it is good Samsung copies it is bad.
Among the iPod's innovations were its small size, achieved using a 1.8" hard drive, whereas its competitors were using 2.5" hard drives at the time, and its easy-to-use navigation, which was controlled using a mechanical scroll wheel (unlike later iPods, which had touch-sensitive scroll wheels), a center select button, and four auxiliary buttons around the wheel. The iPod had a rated battery life of ten hours.
Nope. There's nothing in that link that couldn't also be pulled from adverts of a dozen different products from different people. Parents enjoying a device with children, smiling people using gadgets, etc. Just more Pro-Apple reality distortion.
Both selling tablets, both using same camera angles, both using Dinosaur apps, both using the scene of hiding under blankets, If its reality distorion then you need new glasses.
So, by your logic, could T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T all sue each other for the content of their ads? Simply swap the background colors, red, blue, magenta, etc.
Who's suing?
Show me these adds where they've duplicated each others content and I'll give you a response on if they was copying or not.
Check my edit again.
But all 4 national carriers basically have the same ads, extolling their high performance smartphones, the reliability and speed of their networks, with happy people using those phones, etc.
Pretty obvious the largest issue is the fact that Samsung looks to follow in Apples lead for everything cause they can't be unique themselves. They don't know how to reach target consumers, they don't know how to create their own image. You see anything from companies like Samsung, you think of Apple. pretty pathetic if you ask me.
Only a devout apple sheep would think of apple when seeing a Samsung advert. So IMO samsungs advert is working.
A bunch of baristas pissed off that someone is making better phones.
I find it funny really. So much so that I went out and bought a Galaxy S II today at lunch.
These ads are nothing more than taking the fan made "I'm a Mac parodies and upping the game a bit.
The die hard Apple fanbois got pissy at those jabs at them too. Hurts a bit when it hits close to the mark don't it?
I also just bought a SGS II T-989, and not because of any advert.
snipped some stupid pictures
Because asses keep posting these same asinine pictures. Please, sandisk made their usb adapter so close to ipods adapter that it even fit the ipod. Yet you iphads arent bitching about sandisk because they arent a threat to you. Blackberries power adapter is almost exactly the same as samsungs and apples yet yall aint bitching about that one either. Hmmm, seems like fanboys only cry and bitch and moan when there is a product that may be just as good or better than anything that the apple cookie-cutters can churn out.Why should we expect anything less from these ass clowns?
