New I-Phone Commercials...they strike back

[LordKastle]

This war will not be the faint-hearted...this is just the beginning. Do you think Apple will go down without swinging? This will be a battle.

 

[Erron]

I agree.

And correct me if im wrong but isn't this the first time apple has actually mentioned another "iphone killer" or made reference to it in a commercial?


be very afraid cupertino

Lol. Way better than the lame AT&T commercial with Luke Wilson standing in front of a poster board.

that and the one where he throws postcards around... terribly rushed and not thought out

well when you are outmanned and under armed there is only so much you can come up with.

Thats quite a feat to try and retaliate against a giant like VZW who's coverage is unmatched.

I think your right.....

 

[wuyanks]

the best "phone war" commercial so far is the "home of misfit toys". so clever

 

[Backnblack]

You know, if the iPhone was as snappy as depicted

I believe all the screen shots are photo-shopped in...even VWZ's

 

[Xerozix]

Those commercials have funny music. You need something catchy like idk.

IF Verizon were to lower their data plan costs (doubt they can)

I bet they would get many more customers.

agreed...my fave is the misfit toys one...these dont even come close to being that good...

While this may be true, my droid does at least act as the ones on the tv. As fast as i've seen the ones on the tv, mine does just as fast. Opens apps, navigates webpages, just as the one on the commercial.

So does mine, Just making a statement there..

Well, you also have to remember, some of those screens had to be simulated, cause you can't really have 'nice' video on video.

The one thing I will say, it depends mostly on conditions.

The iPhones my coworkers have, they are happy with. The thing I find funny is that one coworker has mentioned she gets better AT&T coverage where my company is right now, which is in Santa Barbara, a medium size town versus where she was, which was in the Bay Area, Palo Alto, to be more exact.

Palo Alto should have better, if not superior reception than Santa Barbara, especially closer to the Bay Area. But she said she gets better indoor reception in Santa Barbara than she does there.

What can I say but Your Results May Vary. The problem with Advertising is 'what will convince you more to buy our product.' And I am sure the flipside of this, there may be an iphoneforums.net or something retorting all the Verizon/Droid commercials and what not.

Truth. Guess how many times I needed Voice and Data at the same time with my 3GS? Once.

Friend: "Where's the theater again?"
Me: "Where are you?"
Friend: "At home."
Me: "Google Maps must be broken, try Yellowpages.com."

Your girlfriend: Honey.. you there? Did you just hang up? Well the hell with you then.. if you won't commit I'm going to sleep with your best friend tonight.
You: ... I love you so much how did you know? Lets set a date.... Honey?... Honey?... are you there honey?
