- Samsung has released a new Galaxy Z Flip 4 ad that pokes fun at iPhones.
- The ad highlights various features of the foldable flip phone, including its Flex mode and palm gesture for selfies.
- Samsung obviously wants to convince iPhone owners to switch to the Flip.
Samsung has regularly made a point of poking fun at Apple every time a new iPhone comes out, and the iPhone 14 debut is no exception this year. The tech giant has released a new ad that tries to persuade iPhone users to upgrade to the Galaxy Z Flip 4.
As usual, the ad again pokes fun at iPhones by describing how almost everything around us — from castanets and books to toilet seats — flips like Samsung’s latest foldable clamshell phone. The ad came days after Samsung poked fun at Apple in an earlier announcement for its supposed lack of phone innovation.
It starts with a Galaxy Z Flip 4 user showing his phone to the main character, Elena, who is presumably an iPhone user. The announcement highlights some great features, such as Flex Mode and the phone’s ability to take selfie photos with a palm gesture.
Despite these abilities, Elena has stuck with her phone, saying, “I would never switch to Samsung. I love my phone.” The character clearly represents many iPhone users who are keen to upgrade to most top Android phones.
Elena couldn’t get the image of the foldable device out of her head after her first encounter with it, as she constantly remembers it along with everyday objects like a folding chair in a restaurant and a book handmade hardcover.
Near the end of the video, Elena wakes up from a dream and attempts to snap her phone in half JerryRigEverything style. While the handset survived the torture, the iPhone user ended up placing an order for the Flip 4.
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 reintroduces the ability to slap your phone, and it does it in style with gorgeous new colors, a bigger battery, a more powerful processor, and improved cover screen functionality.
