Another Apple event is almost upon us, and Samsung’s up to its usual tricks, again, with yet another, err, hilarious anti-Apple commercial seemingly in the works. The guys over at the Verge managed to grab some photos from the fake Apple Store Samsung’s built, complete with aped signage and Mac hardware to boot. Oh those jovial Koreans really know how to rock the boat.
The latest photos show that, just like the previous ad, Samsung’s not holding back when it comes to its fake Apple Store, Geniuses and all. Something tells me that Samsung’s money would be better spent on pushing out Jelly Bean upgrades, but who am I to challenge the marketing machine. It’s totally not like Samsung holds a grudge at all, eh? [The Verge]
Why You Should Be Pissed That Apple Lets Developers Take Your Contact Info
An Idiot Counterfeiter Returned His Printer with a Whole Sheet of Fake Notes Inside
There's No Such Thing as a Fake Apple Product
Love it or hate it they get an A for effort.
Now if only they put this much effort into their own products they wouldn’t have to resort to this
Really? Do you honestly think Samsung have a workforce so small that having a team of advertising bods making this stuff up would leave them short staffed in the design department? Really?
Or that their latest set of phones are not amongst the market leaders?
Just so you know the “grab some photos” link is wrong.
Thanks mattoc4 — The source link should take you the photos.
They should let this go now and focus on there own products, Whatever they do and no matter how much they take the piss the new iphone will smash there galaxy phones if on nothing else quality.
They’ve got plenty of time at the moment. Once the iPhone 5 is out they can add it to their Samsung Design manual and base their new products on that.
Hahahahahahahaha, why would they copy the iPhone 5? It’s the same phone as the iPhone 4S, which was the same phone as the iPhone 4, which had the same software as the iPhone 3S, which was the same as the iPhone 3, which was more or the same as the first iPhone.
The S stand for sucker.
Define quality? If it is half as good as an SIII I’m sure they will sell a few upgrades.
Sorry Samsung if Apple hold the market; try improving your products, rather than creating bitchy remarks
That should be Held the market, Apple and their icrap days are numbered.
I have to laugh when I see comments like this. Because there is no truth there whatsoever.
Samsung want their own stores with queues outside on release day, with the odd maniac camping outside for weeks beforehand. They want people to be constantly reporting rumours about their next phones. They want tech blog sites that are meant to be reporting about all areas of tech to post 15 articles a day about their next product that hasn’t been released yet.
“You learn to hate what you can’t have. But once you have it, you love it”
Samsung want to have the best selling phone, they got that. Apple’s iPhone is yesterdays news.
iPhone isn’t really yesterdays news. Every tech site is always reporting about Apple, it’s current and future products. I wouldn’t call that yesterday’s news.
Samsung want more than the best selling phone. They want to be the center of attention all the time like Apple currently is.
Samsung are a HUGE company. I think this particular part of that company want to point out the ridiculousness of the iSheep phenomena via the medium of parody.
What the people who actually want an Apple smartphone because they prefer it. Samsung have their own sheep.
Not the people that just want a good phone, the iPhone is definitely great hardware and software. It’s the whole worshipping at the altar of Apple, going mad for an upcoming product that you don’t know the details of yet that they are parodying.
Those looking in on Apple cannot stand the fact their customers love their products so much compared to if they went and bought from another company.
I have an iPhone and I think it’s brilliant. I have used Android but I’m happy with iOS.
Samsung, for me, are just copying quite a lot from Apple. Other companies have mimicked aspects of it but Samsung have taken it a bit too far. The thing is, even though Samsung can’t stand to see “sheep” going to Apple. They’d love to have those people going to them.
Ain’t that the truth!

Don’t be posting that here in this hostile environment. Last time I posted that I was shot down because having 2 products that look exactly the same side by side isn’t valid.
No, those looking in on Apple cannot stand the fact that when things go wrong, which they do, some fanatics deny that. We also can’t stand being told that features we’ve been using for ages only become revolutionary when pushed by Apple. We just can’t stand the inaccuracies that are constantly thrust upon us.
Thrust upon you. By who? I don’t see gizmodo doing it.
Nothing is thrust upon you unless you allow it.
Thrust upon us by all of the Zealots, claiming that history never happened. And yes, we have seen it here before, usually from one blogger in particular, but we’ve definitely see it here.
It works both ways. People who hate Apple change history in order to fit their views.
Both are as bad as each other.
I’m with you there.
The whole dispute is a very grey area. Anyone who says it’s black and white or clear cut either way is just plain wrong.
you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about tbh.
I feel this is like the Go Compare adverts, taking the absolute piss and angering people, as advertising goes, its got all the people on here commenting, and when it comes out properly it’ll have more people talking about Samsung. Although it could really badly affect Samsung, I guess we can only find out
Oh it does make me laugh when Apple nerds get butt hurt over their ‘Intellectual Property’ being stolen.
