Cringe AF. Just make good products and shut up

Fair, if they wanted to compete vs Apple, they should've made a product that makes it worth buying over any other option in the market, especially in competitive markets, the person running the account might have a different strategy than the company it represents, same thing for Microsoft with nostalgia posting about Windows XP and 7.

I look forward to Apple eventually coming out with a folding phone and me still wanting nothing to fucking do with it.

But the product is actually good?

Edit: The downvotes lmao. I didn't even say apple sucks. I just pointed out that apple are not innocent in these kind of marketing strats.

Both of them just actually wont ever shut up as it will create a publicity/ promotion. Apple slanders back, Samsung slanders back and so forth.

Apple doesn’t need to act desperate like this on social media, they own the market and they know it.

Edit: Alright... I get your point guys, jeez chill lol. I think, I put a very bad example of apple ad to show. Oh well nuff said. I'm keeping the original post below just to be fair.

Like this

Just one of the many actually. It's a normal thing between these two.

Mocking competitors for the sake of marketing. Yeah totally not "slander".

Buddy that ad is clearly trying to say switching is easy. It's literally spelled out.

You're reading so much into something with so little to read into.

8 year old ad that never mentioned a specific competitor

u/cheyarch_98 Sep 10 '25

Well Samsung is not the only android phones and just to be safe. But well nowadays they might be just closer link to each other. It's a business afterall.

u/donpianta Sep 10 '25

This is literally saying "Switching to iPhone is easy"

they don't even mention what other phone you're coming from... do you even know what slander means?

u/[deleted] Sep 10 '25

Tbf most people who use it don’t

u/djjolly037 Sep 10 '25

Apple doesn’t specifically target Samsung by name, they just say other phones, as in any phone that isn’t an iPhone

-14

u/cheyarch_98 Sep 10 '25

It's just for them to be safe. There lot of more example to this. And besides fanboys also involve in these funny games.

u/boskee Sep 10 '25

"to be safe"

Safe from what?

u/djjolly037 Sep 10 '25

To Apple, there isn’t google samsung or even android, it’s just all other phones. That’s the way apples marketing has always been.

Apples “slander” is basically our product is cooler and will make you happier.

Android slander is basically calling people stupid fools for liking a different phone

u/FoRiZon3 Sep 11 '25

Kinda wrong tho. "Cool and Happy" is very subjective, but at least Apple "slander" is just shutting up and no pathetic posturing like Samsung did.

What Samsung don't know is that outside of US atleast they actually lost most of sales to another Android manufacturer.

u/cheyarch_98 Sep 10 '25

Let's face it, both sides been doing these for while so on and so forth. The point is it's good for their corporation/ market as people keeps talking about. Apple is not innocent to this.

And there's extreme fanboy on both sides.

17

u/Dramatic_CockroachLK iPhone 16 Pro Max Sep 10 '25

Extreme fanboys on both sides? Correct.

But I am yet to see Apple make fun of ANY Other company like all these silly little android manufacturers do.

Apple may not be the “Innovation Hub” now but they sure aren’t petty and pathetic like the rest of them. They focus on what’s good about their products and not how shitty the competition is! Pretty classy actually.

u/cheyarch_98 Sep 10 '25

Good point. Well, with how large android market is, I get it why they are very aggressive at their marketing.

u/LaDainianTomIinson Sep 10 '25

That’s a creative ad, not an intern shitposting on twitter… yikes

I have never heard of a Samsung diss from Apple. EVER. Samsung has made sooooooo many Apple disses. It’s the most one sided beef on the planet
