Apple Shares New 'Hello Yellow' Ad for iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus

[bluecoast]

Gotta love YT influencers / tech experts unboxing the iPhone 14 yellow:

'So, it's the iPhone 14 from 2022 - but in yellow'.

And managing to spin this simple statement out for 10 minutes or so, so they get the requisite amount of ad breaks.

In a way, I admire them.

That is a well made commercial. It could have been all sorts of cringe, but it entertained me with a clever concept and informed me.

Totally surprising ad! Love the creative approach, but not a fan of the song. I think the ad could have been so much better with a different song.

Anytime a phones’ highlight feature is its color, that tells me the company has run out of ideas and has resorted to BestBuy sales tactics.

jesus christ, I miss old Apple ads so much. so simple and to the point. do they really think everyone is braindead and needs all of this flashy animation these days? (granted, we live in the age of TikTok where EVERYONE is being overstimulated by their phones…)

and who could forget…

Why a yellow iPhone? Tim Cook trying to beat Wall Street for a big bonus.

 

[DeepIn2U]

All this for a phone no one likes.

I feel like I've lost 5yrs of new fully working brain cells from watching this video.
In no way, does this video show why Yellow was selected as a colour - not even to show coordinating with clothes or someone that loves the colour.

I feel robbed of my time.

But people keep saying Apple only wants to sell more Pro's 🤷‍♂️

I'm just mad about saffron
A-saffron's mad about me
I'm-a just mad about saffron
She's just mad about me
They call me mellow yellow (Quite rightly)

I'm just mad about [iPhone] fourteen
[iPhone] Fourteen's mad about me
I'm-a just mad about-a [iPhone] fourteen
A-she's just mad about me
They call me mellow yellow

I just couldn't help but think of Chappelle Show's R. Kelly skit...

I know, I'm basic.

 

[Sleepy Dog 27]

Reminds me of the iPhone 11.
Honestly, I like it...

 

[Rogue AI]

They're trying desperately to sell those overpriced cat puke yellow phones.

 

[Rogue AI]

And yet... Here you are spouting your "hate" for something apparently you don't like.

Always posts like this. 🙄

They can say their opinion just as much as you can. If somebody doesn't like it, who cares. You could've easily ignored that post.

The phone is ugly and it's quite clear Apple is trying desperately to sell these overpriced phones that nobody wanted.

Unfortunately for that iPhone 2G commercial

that is NOT how to turned on an iPhone lol. What they showed is how to unlock the screen

Because taking photos of young girls skipping is less creepy when you’re a cartoon.

 

[szw-mapple fan]

You can always trust Apple marketing to make fun ads even for the most minor of updates.

 

[JosephAW]

That's pretty funny, Apple confirms my previous post about a banana by using a song called "the banana split" to introduce their new iPhone color, lol

 

[macos9rules]

Totally surprising ad! Love the creative approach, but not a fan of the song. I think the ad could have been so much better with a different song.

I actually think Lio’s “Banana Split” song they used fits perfectly. It’s great they used a pre-1980 song in French for once.

Apple has shared a new "Hello Yellow" ad promoting the new Yellow finish that launched today for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. The ad features a mix of live action and animation and is set to the song "Le Banana Split" by Lio.

The new color option gives the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus some renewed attention after the devices launched in September 2022. Pre-orders began on Friday, and the first deliveries to customers and in-store availability began today. There are no changes to the devices beyond the new Yellow finish, and pricing remains the same.

As a refresher, the iPhone 14 is equipped with a 6.1-inch display, while the iPhone 14 Plus is a larger 6.7-inch model. Key new features of the devices include camera enhancements like Action mode, longer battery life, Crash Detection, and Emergency SOS via Satellite. In the U.S., the devices are compatible with eSIMs only. Other color options available include Midnight, Starlight, Blue, Purple, and (PRODUCT)RED.

Customers should be aware that Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 15 series in September as usual, so all-new devices are around six months away.

Big whoop…. YAWN

Reminds me a little of the Beatles’ Yellow Submarine

I could see Steve recommending that tune.

 

[rmeurant]

Strong shades of Robert Crumb...

 

[svish]

Good ad. Manufacturers launching new colours at mid product life cycle has become standard. Helps to drive sales. But would like to see all the colours to be offered at launch.

 

[ApplesAreSweet&Sour]

There's so much nonsense going on in the commercial you don't get an idea of what the yellow looks like in contrast to real world colors. I don't care enough to look it up but who is doing Apples marketing these days?

I actually thought this ad was completely realistic and reasonable and depicted very common scenarios.

.. that is until I realized there’s no cover on the iPhone! The savage is just running around in his little cartoon city with no regard for his new purchase. 😳

Blasphemy!!

 

[-Jodorowsky-]

Interesting choice of soundtrack. Apple choosing a song with double meaning about fellatio.

Well, that's unexpected...

I'll have what he's having^
