Can Samsung convince Dilbert on the Galaxy Note?
Samsung can’t stop sniping at Apple, and the newest Galaxy Note street challenge seems to have convinced at the least one disgruntled iPhone owner; however, the Korean firm still has Dilbert to cajole. For its latest commercial, Samsung apparently took its 5.3-inch smartphone-tablet hybrid to the mean streets of latest York City, giving Android users a couple of hours to familiarize yourself with the “phablet”, after which pitted them against iPhone owners on a chain of challenges.
The street tasks go heavy on in-built functionality, with the Galaxy Note’s annotation abilities in addition to its photo editing tools each put through their paces. By contrast, the poor iPhone owner is left gaping at her Samsung-toting rival.
