This pompous ad is Apple's worst ever. My adult daughter cringed when she first saw it. It makes me want to never buy Apple again, much as the original Infinity commercials permenately put me off that brand. Steve Jobs would be furious. This is the worse Apple ad ever. In my humble opinion.

I think it was awful, up to apple standards,and it isn't reflective of the post-thief jobs mango mindset. I see apple advancing with it's cappy management. Which they could improve like Samsung, now that thief jobs has died, I am sure we will look a lot like Samsung. that is just my opinion.

The ad tells everything that makes Apple great, so I agree: it is "true". I am sorry though, this message - for me - is lost in the pompous tone, the holy slow motion thing.

I think they need to unfreeze Steve Jobs already before the apple hits the metal fan. Fire that tard Cook, he's ruining Steve's legacy.

How when they still have the magic touch of innovation?

I really was inspired by this Ad. It really is what Apple stands for and what they believe in. Superb animations most I have never seen. Sounds effects adds liveliness to the simple lines and circles. Powerful message from something so simple.

Aww how sweet.. Did you soil your pants during the commercial? Do you still get a special feeling when you experience it?

Great ad...the media just likes to pick apart anything the most popular kid in class does these days, quite a different tune than not even 1 year ago, when the same media was praising everything that Apple did.

I didn't think it was that bad of an ad, but it clearly wasn't up to Apple's usual standards, and it's reflective of the post-Steve Jobs Apple mindset. I can't see Apple advancing much without some new management. They still have improvements (all approved by Steve before he died), but I doubt the new team can come up with many new ideas.

Ever since steve died since iphone 3gs, apple soon pulled it off on their own! They actually made 4 and 4s without steve, this is a sign from the past that they can still invent and now their is a new mac pro with 2x faster and better features! Do you ever visit the apple site or just say what we don't want to hear ya iTard?

I think the ads are good. Better than some of the crap from other companies. they should start making ads like they did with the Mac vs PC but iOS vs android. Something comedic. Maybe bring back Justin Long.

Stupid commercial. They should hire Sterling-Cooper Ad agency.

I certainly like it better than some past ones. It's a decent explanation of one of the many reasons to buy apple products.

I personally love it. Its what makes apple the company it is. It reflects on their products and the back end support they offer.

Love em because they describe what I love about Apple. When people ask me why I've always been an Apple fan, these ads are saying what I tell them!

"Designed by Apple in California" Just reminds me that they are not MADE by American workers.
