As we prepare for another “magical” iPhone announcement from Apple, we thought we’d set the tone for today’s event with a little humor. Could Steve Jobs rise from the dead and use his mastery of marketing to get the world to buy the new iFone 5? Sure, it could happen, I mean, we’ve already seen Tupac make a comeback… right?

Poor Tim Cook.

You look familiar.

Samsung has begun shooting its next commercial, and like previous ads, this one will poke fun at Apple and its users — namely those who will be purchasing the new iPhone 5 this week. Unfazed by its recent court loss, the Korean company has erected a fake Apple store, complete with Macs and iOS devices, just so that it can mock every consumer using a rival device in a 30-second video.

Photos of the set, which is currently being constructed in Los Angeles, have begun making their way around the web, and they show the store in all its glory, with fake banners, and even fake Geniuses.

A “leaked” promo video exposing the soon to be released iPhone 5 has revealed a completely retooled design. The promo video features Apple’s Vice President of iPhone Product Design, and shows off the redesigned iPhone 5 in all of its glory. Apple really outdid themselves this time, and they owe it all to their research department, which studied how customers use their iPhones, concluding that: “people only use iPhones to take pictures of food.”

Nom, nom, nom.

Remember that impressive Liquipel waterproof coating for smartphones and mobile devices that was being shown off at CES? Well, according to a previously reliable source, it’ll soon be a feature present on Apple’s long-awaited iPhone 5, and Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S III.
