My comment was in response to an entry that was later removed by the site because other readers flagged it as offensive. I was very offensive. So you don't know what you are talking about.

Two things come to mind: Samsung is hurting themselves with this childish ad. There are apple fans that own other Samsung products that may intentionally avoid their products the next time they purchase. The new iPhone may not do anything new that current devices on the market can do, but has the iPhone ever really done anything new? It's always been behind in technology but people love these devices because the software and build quality are so high. Apple's research goes into enhancing the user experience, not just throwing whatever technology is available into the device haphazardly. Both devices are good but you cannot you cannot deny that apple's build quality is much better than Samsung's plastic phones. That's like comparing the Ford Taurus SHO to an Audi A6. Both are good cars but I would much rather have the innovation, quality, and driving experience of the A6 even though the SHO is faster and has the MS sync technology. To each his own.

Just true fully Samsung has the better product, hands down. Apple knows it also as they buy products from Samsung for their iPhone , lol

Actually with new iPhone very lite is coming from Samsung. The A6 chip is custom designed by Apple and the in cell display is different from Samsung's on cell technogy is behind the in cell displays the iPhone 5 is using from sharp and LG. that's what makes this particular iPhone great.

I used to like their TV's but I'm not buying another Samsuck product. Ever. LG, Sony, so many more choices that are really better than Samsuck. Thanks for enlightening me.

This is so immature... Reminds me of petty high school, drama movies. No class, Samsung, that's why I don't intentionally buy your products.

Not about America or Asia. I'm an immigrant to this country and even though I love America, I dont have any reason for bigotry. This is simply about respecting the hard work of others. Samsung refused to pay Apple any licensing fees. Just dip your hand in the jar and take, no permission necessary? Why is that OK? They are taking Apple's IP, generating massive gains and market share and literally trying to bankrupt Apple. This is not acceptable in my opinion.

After watching this ad Sammy convince me to sell my iPhone 4S to buy a Galaxy S3. I'd also will sell my BMW to buy a Ford focus that cost me the same than my BWM. Oh! and sell my Bose speakers and buy a logitech that cost the same Poor Sammy. having to give Apple the whole profits for a quarter must be hard. Very hard A word of advice to little Sammy: Innovate. Try to do something completely different than the iPhone and see what happen. Innovation comes with risk of failure. Risk it.

ive owned 5 galaxy s III's and to be honest, its not bad at all, but to be logically honest, its not really that great either, galaxy android phones in general have a very mediocre OS base platform and features included aren't very useful, NFC for one seems more like a hassle than convenience (having to be next to someone with an NFC enabled phone) why do you think we have MMS? also the build quality of almost every samsung mobile device is even more of a joke, there is little to no effort put into design and using plastic housings may be durable, but gives the device a very cheap feel when holding it (I couldn't use any of my GS3's w/out a case, just didn't feel like a solid phone). not to mention the screen literally breaks like nothing, gorilla glass isn't as durable as you might think, I see more devices with shattered gorilla glass at my work than I do any IOS devices, those who like the S3, great for them, but I prefer decent build quality and jailbroken IOS w/100% control over my device, just sayin'

All the apple fans saying this ad is stupid etc are just plain butt hurt because Samsung is opening their eyes here and the truth hurts. That's okay though because if apple had ads bashing other companies then it's fine....Oh wait those mac vs pc ads...

These are all direct customer preorder on websites. Apple provides only sales numbers. IRS Samsuck actually that only provides provider order numbers it is a well known fact to everyone except their ignorant Fans that they don't ever report direct sales numbers.

Am talkin about Samsung pre-order. They never have on-line pre order for customer. Apple always has a customer pre-order from their website.

First - The problem with adverts like this is that they pander to the existing fanboy customer but serve to alienate any possible new customers. "Hey Apple customer, Samsung think you are stupid" "Oh ok then I'd better buy one of their devices" No one likes being told they are stupid Second - there are people who DO NOT CARE about a 6 mile wide screen and a gajillion MB ram, NFC and all the other pointless junk that some manufacturers stick on their phones in order to make them an attractive proposition. I liken these to the people who are tempted into buying Jap Crap cars because they have every conceivable gadget you can imagine over a simple but elegant, sturdy German car with less gadgets but far superior build quality and engineering. Third - not everyone is the same. That is all.
