Samsung's 'troll' ad... 'It doesn't take a genius'.
|
It looks like Samsung has responded to the iPhone 5 with a new 'inflammatory' ad that will run in newspapers starting this Sunday.

"It doesn't take a genius" is the title of the new ad that Samsung plans to run in US national newspapers starting this Sunday, in which they compare the just announced iPhone 5 to the Galaxy S III.
The ad breaks down some key specs of the two phones, but it's also a bit misleading...
On the Apple side of the equation you'll find such items as "a totally different plug," while the Samsung portion is padded out with pretty much every software feature the Korean company's been able to give a name to.
The cherry atop this cake of provocation is the slogan "it doesn't take a genius," which simultaneously pokes fun at Apple's Genius store employees and implies that choosing the Galaxy S III over the iPhone 5 is a no-brainer.

Take a look at it:
Samsung is running a similar campaign on Twitter too:
Given the speed with which Apple sold out of its first batch of iPhone 5s, it seems there are quite a few people out there who'd disagree with Samsung's premise, don't you think?
So, what are your thoughts about this one?
