Samsung Continues To Egg Apple On With Its Latest “We Just Got Samsunged” Ad
I’m sure by now you’ve been subjected to the perpetual cat fight between Samsung and Apple. Just when I thought Samsung couldn’t taunt Apple any further they go ahead and launch another ad for their “The next big thing is already here” campaign. Their newest ad, which is set to smear your screen during the Super Bowl, has a corny catchphrase that I’m assuming Samsung hopes will go viral. Would you like to hear it? Of course you would — “We’ve Just Got Samsunged!” I kid you not, this is what one of the portrayed iFans blurts out after a Samsung Galaxy SII owner shows him that he has free turn by turn navigation built into his phone.

This latest add is a continuation of their previous ads, he one’s which showed fans of “a certain other device” waiting in line for hours for the next “great” iteration to be released, only to become suddenly mesmerized by random citizens and their Samsung Galaxy S II devices. It’s full of iPhone jabs and stereotypes that some people will find funny, while others will find it just plain sad. No matter the impact of these videos on you, or the mobile market, one thing’s for sure — Samsung loves pushing Apple’s buttons.

    Boy is this going to look dated with Apple’s aquisitions of both C3 Technologies and Poly9.

      Well, we know that Apple will do catch up, as do it lately. But until then Android will come with something new.
      Get use to, iboys:)

      Yeah, too bad Apple’s 3 years late to the party, Android will have more cutting egde features introduced this year, in which you’ll get it by 2015.

    Right, screw you, Cult of Mac. Screw you forever.

    1. For linking to hundreds of Cult of Android articles on the Cult of Mac site.

    2. For using Disqus on Android so that people from Mac (Vanilla) can’t post in the comments about how mind-numbingly pathetic and idiotic your decisions are.

    3. FOR POSTING AN ARTICLE THAT SAYS “NEW COMMERCIAL” WHEN IT’S ACTUALLY AN ARTICLE FROM JANUARY.

    Unfortunately Samsung have alienated me with these adverts. I like my iPhone, i don’t want their Galaxy devices… but insulting me because of my choice of platform has made me decide not to purchase any more of their products.

    Too bad Samsung’s technology is always half baked.
