Why are they still airing that Wall Hugger commercial

[sparky08]

Beats me. Nothing against their products, but if you're trying to win customers over from one platform, it's best not to make fun of the user base.
It always seems like that to me, at least.

"Hi, I'm a Mac"......."and I'm a PC"

I don't think people are upset by the ad; rather, we're puzzled by how stupid Samsung's strategy has been. Why return to the same strategy that has been failing to reverse declining sales for months?

I don't think that's true in this case because these are ads focused on the US market, where much of the Android competition has been very weak.



If there's some logic in these ads, then I think it's a defensive play by Samsung to try to retain the user base they have and try to dissuade them from switching to an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus.



It's a given that Samsung is going to be shedding a lot of market share to Apple in the US market in Q3 & Q4 2014. The question is a matter of how much.

Why do we care what Samsung does here anyway, the op seems overly affected. Very strange.

You see how many iPhone users there are in those commercials? Samsung knows what's up.

there a huge difference in the delivery. The apple ads came off as funny and harmless, samsung's ads have a sarcastic, condescending tone about them. Its very off putting.

Why does Coke make commercials showing a Pepsi driver drinking a Coke?

Why do car companies make commercials making fun of the competition?

Seriously the deep rooted love and hate for corporations is a little strange.


Some of you get upset over the stupidest things. You don't "agree" with the marketing campaign at Samsung? Who really cares.

This! 100% agreed! I mean getting that upset over a commercial? Or b/c Samsung is making fun of Apple or Apple fans? At the end of the day, it's just a damn commercial. Nothing more. If Samsung happens to win over some people and causes Apple to lose a few sales, oh well. That crap doesn't affect me. I have no loyalty to Apple or any other corporation. I mean why should I? Not like they give a damn about me or anybody else on here for that matter.
