Samsung's latest Galaxy S5 ad pokes fun at iPhone battery

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mzMUTrTYD9s?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;controls=2&amp;autohide=1&amp;showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-mzmutrtyd9s" frameborder="0"></iframe> <p>Samsung's latest <a href="www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s5">Galaxy S5[/url] ad takes square aim at iPhone users, particularly as they're huddled around the few wall outlets scattered around an airport. Meanwhile, smug S5 owners can switch on ultra power saving mode or pop in an extra battery pack.</p> <!--break--> <p>Samsung has had some ads in the past along the same vein (http://www.imore.com/samsung-mocks-apple-iphone-users-galaxy-ii-commercial), and even the more recent ads (http://www.androidcentral.com/new-samsung-ads-skewer-iphone-and-ipad) still put Apple squarely in their sights. Even if these are well done (and many argue they're not), there are still plenty of people that are perfectly happy with their iPhone battery life. Funnily enough BlackBerry CEO John Chen called iPhone users wall huggers back in March (http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/the-exchange/battery-short-iphone-users-are--wall-huggers---quips-blackberry-ceo-223815099.html), as pointed out by Jordan Kahn (http://9to5mac.com/2014/07/03/samsung-borrows-a-line-from-blackberry-calls-iphone-users-wall-huggers-in-new-ad/).</p> <p>What do you guys think of the ads? Are they effective, or remotely true to life? Are you satisfied with your iPhone's battery life?</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-25527"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3c251a42/sc/15/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
