Two words can end this argument about which is better... FORCE CLOSE... has anyone that has ever owned an iphone (even a 2g or 3g) had an app ever force close on them?..... thought so, but honestly the only reason I chose to pay $680 for my factory unlocked iphone 4 is because of cydia, only an IOS device can run cydia which actually gives you modification options unlike android which is just open platform for app developers. But for basic IOS users the iphone simply just has a much cleaner looking interface, however, I myself would never own an iphone if jail breaking did not exist (same goes for my iPad 2- pretty useless without cydia)

Yeah the next big thing... too bad still a Samsung, try contacting them if your phone has issues even within the factory warranty time frame and they just never reply nor make contact back, in the overall product/service we can get trough apple is superior, they do stand behind their product anywhere in the world they reach market. Personally I choose apple since what they call 4G is mainly better when getting lots of data as it will be watching a movie online, but for the most apps 3G is enough.

As an iPhone 4S owner & resident of Denver, Colorado I'm offended by Samsung's commercial lol

I guess Samsung and its ad agency don't know Apple stores offer WiFi? It'd make more sense if this was at a park.

I payed 96 cents for my Galaxy S II during black Friday at Sam's Club (I went at noon). It was not free, but at ~$1 it was VERY affordable (stored my 3GS away...)

MrYogi - December 2, 2011 at 10:10am

I think Samsung is trying to caputure non fan boy crowds but it's not working lol. Worst marketing in business history LoL

MrYogi - December 2, 2011 at 10:07am

Wow my co worker has the galaxy there's no 4g... In the area she ends up Using my 4s. Until AT&T does a full 4g upgrade with its tower this commercial is useless (USA). Dumbest commercial ever not wrll thought of. Just fire the producers or whatever u call them

Miguel - December 2, 2011 at 9:12am

They forgot to mention that 4G are rare in USA, that 4S performs very faster in video and the battery is better

the only ones getting hurt by these are those apple fan boys that actually "camp out" at Apple Stores every new releases. An apple fan boy myself, im not offended by this. i have never camped out/stood in line for hours ( and ill never will) just to buy something... (unless it's for water or food.... meaning there was a catastrophic event and say goodbye to our beloved apple gadgets)

Notice how the background on the samsung phone looks like the default background on Snow Leopard.

SuperTiti - December 2, 2011 at 4:32am

Please, please Samsung , more of this ! Hoping Apple will place more serious features in their idevices !!!

SuperTiti - December 3, 2011 at 5:35am

I own an iMac 24, a PowerBook 1.25GHz, a Touch 4 (the third one) and an iPad 2. 1.3MP camera on an iPad or iPod is indecent in 2011, I should 2012 !!!

SuperTiti - December 3, 2011 at 5:36am

I should say...

Satya - December 2, 2011 at 4:08am

1st of all Apple never show finger on other brands in ads. They show omly best features. Grow up Samsung. Also s2 battery sucks. Pls don't buy any Samsung models. If u need phone, buy 2nd hand iphone 2G / 3G, but don't go for new Samsung models. Any how it's better deal.

tadada - December 2, 2011 at 10:03am

Have you already forgot Mac vs PC ads? Fanboys memory is soooo short.

Junaid - December 2, 2011 at 3:44am

Yeah its 4G but its not updating to ice cream sandwhich, battery sucks, why they do wrong marketing. Fact is samsung sucks and their devices are new just for couple of months. Then forget it and talk about new device.

Boywonda - December 2, 2011 at 5:58am

I've used the Galaxy S and the Galaxy S 2......Not a fan by any means. That's it

Boywonda - December 2, 2011 at 6:00am

And when I say used.......I mean actually used the hell out of it, I still have the Galaxy S 2.....I've rooted it, done everything you can imagine in terms of hacking it. Android is just not my cup of tea......The Nexus however with Ice Cream sandwich (I don't get these OS names Google keeps throwing out but okay) looks pretty interesting

Johnny - December 2, 2011 at 3:00am

Agreed!! I work in cellular and the amount of people whom come in with all this jargon that they hear thinking they know more than the actual reps servicing them is ridiculous. I had a client just this week tell me how he doesn't want a phone that's not 4G because he won't get the proper speed or reception he desires. I asked him, do you travel @ all from the area you live in currently? Plan on moving anytime soon? He replies "No, I do not, and I just moved to my area." My response, well sir, considering your area DOES NOT have a 4G compatible network yet, you won't have to worry about not getting 4G speeds, cause you can't get them
