Plot twist: this is an exclusive behind the scenes short documentation of the iPhone 12 project team designing the new smaller box 😂
As a reporter, maybe you should do some digging and get the scoop on the charger.
Well that was actually quite enjoyable. It had the desired effect and got me to laugh.
Well played.

And now you're going to buy a new Mac, iDevice, or Apple service in the next 3 to 6 months.
What can I say. I’m just a marketing dream.And now you're going to buy a new Mac, iDevice, or Apple service in the next 3 to 6 months.
It was cute. Certainly examples of real world experiences many of us are facing day to day. The only thing I didn’t like, because I come from the packaging industry, is that most people / companies in the category know what they’re doing and would have knocked out multiple samples much quicker and professionally. This team was a bunch of clowns, but I suppose that was the point of the commercial.
Anyone else notice the new iPhones!!??!? The 12 is used by multiple people
Apple today shared a funny video focused on the problems that people working from home have to deal with, including noisy children, chaotic schedules, communication issues, and more.
The video focuses on showing off Apple products and their capabilities that can be useful when working from home, such as the ability to scan a document with an iPhone, mark up a PDF, Siri Reminders, and more.The seven minute video follows a group of colleagues attempting to work through an important project while overcoming all the problems that come with working remotely, and it comes after a similar "Apple at Work" video that Apple published last year featuring the same actors.
Other highlighted products and features in the video include Memoji, writing with Apple Pencil, Group FaceTime, AirPods, the iPad Pro's measure app, and the sleep tracking feature on the Apple Watch.

As much as I agree with your complaint, I feel a need to remind, the display housing (not the entire system) of a MacBook (Pro) is much thinner than an iPad or iPhone. I would guess no more than 50% of the thickness. So, even if Apple had access to FHD and UHD sensors and suitable lenses of that size, they've probably determined it probably wouldn't be a worthwhile expense to ask of customers.
Nice!
But frankly speaking, after quite a few video meetings till date, i have yet to see a video chat quality worth even 720p.
Who watches these things? A 7 minute product placement film...
This was great! As someone who has been working at home since March? I can’t remember .... I sent it to my wife who has had to do way too many Zoom meetings in the same office as me (our home office). We both laughed a lot. Great video.
Only the part just past around 1:42 was "funny"...(and that's pushing it) The rest of it... eh... I just don't vibe with Apple's "normie" sense of humor... and being. (think Tim Cook in interviews)
Agreed. Gave up after a couple of mins. Zzz.
I liked it. It was relatable, and not heavy-handed at all from an advertising perspective.
