Samsung und Motorola finden in der Apple Gemeinde das perfekte Opfer


An Apple evangelist, also known as Mac(intosh) evangelist, Mac advocate or Apple fanboy is a promoter of Apple products such as the Macintosh, the iPod, the iPhoneand the iPad. As a group, the followers are called the Cult of Mac. - Wikipedia

Samsung und Apple streiten sich nicht nur vor Gericht sondern auch im Fernsehen. Der neuste Werbeclip für das Samsung Galaxy S2 nimmt die Apple Fanboys auf die Schaufel - und deren Lieblingsprodukt gleich mit. 

Autsch,
das tut Apple Jüngern ganz schön weh
-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6h5JSojJN3Y&feature=player_embedded

Die koreanische Firma ist aber natürlich nicht die einzige, die den "Apple Kult" und deren vermeintliche Einzigartigkeit durch den Kakao zieht. Motorola zeigte am Superbowl 2011 einen Werbeclip für das Motorola Xoom Tablet - in meinen Augen eine noch weitaus bessere Werbung als die von Samsung. Gleichzeitig wird nämlich auch auf die 1984 Apple Werbung angespielt.

Starke Ansage
Das Xoom ist "powerful enough to make people take out their white Apple earbuds and learn to live again."
-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-iz7zlNCEw&feature=related

The Mac and its fans constitute the equivalent of a religion. This religion is based on an origin myth for Apple Computer, heroic and savior legends surrounding its co-founder and current CEO Steve Jobs, the devout faith of its follower congregation, their belief in the righteousness of the Macintosh, the existence of one or more Satanic opponents, Mac believers proselytizing and converting nonbelievers, and the hope among cult members that salvation can be achieved by transcending corporate capitalism.

Russell Belk, Consumer Behaviorist at the University of Utah (Wikipedia)

Die Besessenheit von Apple Fans mit neuen Produkten zieht sich oft ins Lächerliche (vor allem wenn man die vielen Startschwierigkeiten des 4S betrachtet) - damit bietet sich diese Gemeinschaft natürlich als die perfekte Zielscheibe für Parodien. Ich würde mich, obwohl ich selbst ein iPhone neben mir liegen habe, durchaus über mehr Werbungen auf diesem Niveau freuen. Besser als "wunschmuesli" ist das auf jeden Fall. Und ein bisschen Selbstironie hat noch niemandem geschadet.

Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air

Ich will nicht behaupten, dass die Werbungen schlecht sind oder, dass es Apple in vielerlei hinsicht nicht verdient hätte, allerding ist es manchmal schon komisch, dass werbungen nur mehr auf den schwächen anderer rumhacken. Es erinnert ein wenig an Wahlkampf in Österreich. Zur letzten Nationalratswahl ich glaube es war ein FPÖ Katalog (aber in diesem Fall sind die anderen um nichts besser): Wir finden das und das schlecht das ist von denen und denen. und das den ganzen Prospekt lang. Keine konstruktiven Vorschläge, keine Selbstdarstellung. Da muss ich schon sagen, dass ich es nicht wirklich gut finde. Lustig ist's trotzdem iwie auch wenn ich mich als Apple-Symathisanten bezeichnen würde
