Samsung has rolled out another of its ads that aim to poke fun at Apple iPhone 5 buyers and those that plan on waiting in line for one tomorrow. Samsung released a similar ad last year just after the iPhone 4S went on sale; so these poor attempts at advertising and humor from Samsung are nothing really new. This latest ad is supposedly there to promote its Samsung Galaxy S3 under the heading of "The Next Big Thing Is Already Here".
The ad tries to make fun of the iPhone 5's use of sapphire crystals by saying the phone will be like a precious jewel, making fun of the repositioning of the headphone jack as if it was some sort of big deal and the all-digital Lightning connector. It's like Samsung is trying to tell you that iPhone users are dumb people who get over excited over any tiny little design change or small feature. Samsung then goes on to insinuate that iPhone users are mainly now the older generation and the hip and cool people are using the Samsung Galaxy S3.
Take a look at the video below and let us know what you think? Personally I think Samsung should just concentrate on its own phones features and not spend its marketing budget trying to be humorous or knocking better products!
Source: YouTube
Another pathetic, jealous marketing attempt by a company who would absolutely love to be in Apples position. Sad how Samsung hasn't learned that marketing a product by bashing another or it's users is not a reliable long term strategy.
It's not another jealous marking attempt... It is the truth, just deal with it! you isheeps are so funny!
You call Trini-34 a troll and here you are using the same name as a pron star???
Besides, you haven't been here that long either...
What else do you call idiots who come to pro Apple sites just to be morons?
i have the S3, half of the features are gimmicky at best, at first i was fine with the 4.7 inch screen but after a while its to big 4 inches is perfect, i'm putting my S3 on craigslist next week, there is a lot of pros and cons on both OS, but at least with the iphone i wont experience any fragmentation. Not as much as before but i still get that lag on my S3 even after rooting. and don't get me started on root, 90% of all roms i tried had some something wrong with them. whats funny to me is how much roid fanboys like you have hate. always bitter and filled with hate, what your mommy didn't give you enough tit
"iPhone 5. Well, you USED to be able to talk and surf the Web at the same time...."
What fragmentation is there with Samsung phones? What? Their OS/UI is a little different than HTC phones or Motorola phones? Oh, my! Apples phones are completely different than anybody else's phones. So, what's the problem again?
That's due to the network restrictions, Verizon and Sprint have screwed that up. Apple kept the phone small and used one chip. On carriers who have more developed networks (hell in Canada, I believe every network supports voice and data).
And before you whine and moan and say "BUT IT DOESN'T SUPPORT LTE WHILE ON VOICE" (troll emphasis is mine) please, please, PLEASE don't try to justify needing to browse at 40+ while on a damn phone call.
I honestly think the need for LTE on a phone is baffling unless you are tethering.
And Stuart, ALL android devices are fragmented beyond belief. The fact that Samsung and HTC hardware are so completely different in their screen sizes, resolutions, the chipsets are different, the entire hardware in all of the umpteen phones out there is a mess when it comes to developers trying to create an app to work across the board. I saw a picture from a developer who had no less than 200 Android phones with varying hardware that they had to try and test on. With Apple, it's now 3 iPads (with corresponding hardware) and 6 variations of iPhones. And for the most part they don't need to go even that far.
As for guided access, I tested it and it faltered once, then it was locked perfectly regardless of the rotation. It's a bug, and don't EVEN try to say that Android is free from all bugs, you're living in a dream world of you think that's true. The big difference is that with Apple, you can expect an update to fix the problem will come fairly quickly, and be IMMEDIATELY available for everyone. Versus Android where you MIGHT get an update to fix a problem in a year, or not at all. I see how horrible the update process is on Android, waiting for the carriers to hopefully update the firmware to push down.
As for Siri, you do realize that technically Gmail has been in beta for a decade? But no, gmail is just garbage, millions upon millions simply are disgusted with its stability and flexibility.
You call Apple people Sheep, but you clearly can't see any of the many faults Android has. Neither is perfect, far from it. The difference between the Apple haters and the Apple fans is simple. We can see the benefit of Android, yet you're completely BLIND to any benefits to Apple. You are so close minded, it's embarrassing.
I see the joys of Android, I see why people choose them. I see the draw to a bigger screen, to the ability to have widgets and the various other things.
But for me, the slim profile, the light weight, the feel of the build quality in my hands, the ecosystem that translates seamlessly across my now 5 devices, and I can sit back and enjoy them. Due to the various updates, I no longer need to jailbreak. I don't have a need for widgets, my phone and iPad just work, and they work like a dream. I don't have a need for android like I would have 6 years ago. And maybe if Android was around when I got my Touch Pro 2, with even a remotely established App Store like Apple had, maybe I would be on the Android train... But I sure as hell wouldn't act the fool like you Android trolls do.
You rarely, RARELY ever see Apple owners trolling on your Android forums, sites, posts. But you guys can't help but to ALWAYS find your way here to try and act all superior.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, you guys are jokes. Why can't you grow up and just enjoy the phone you have, why must you act like children?
"network restrictions [on] Verizon"?? Huh? The iPhone 5 will be the ONLY 4G LTE phone on Verizon that CAN'T do simultaneous voice and 4G data.
As for using voice and 40Mbps, you may not be a traveling professional, but lots of us are. I turn on the hotspot on my phone and connect my laptop, tablet, and iPod Touch to it. And I, for example, participate in conference calls while watching online screen-shared type presentations. Like I said, that's just one example. A totally different one would be taking a roadtrip with my g/f and turning on my hotspot so she can surf the Web with her iPad - and be uninterrupted if I get a call and talk on the phone while I'm driving (and using my Bluetooth handsfree).
Dismiss simultaneous voice and data all you want, but I sure do remember 2 years ago (before Verizon started having phones that would allow simultaneous voice and data) when that was one of the big things AT&T phoners used to use as a point in favor of being with AT&T instead of Verizon.
And, really, the point of my comment was that Apple has not moved forward at all (on the voice/data front) from the 4S position of only doing voice and 3G data - where ALL OTHER 4G LTE devices on Verizon CAN do simultaneous voice and 4G data. Lame. No excuse.
Samsung, who sells more smartphone than Apple, seems to have a pretty cohesive ecosystem. No developer has to test on 200 phones to release an app that works on a Samsung phone. And the market for that developer is still bigger than the market for an equivalent iOS app. Why does it matter that HTC also uses Android, and possibly in a slightly different way? Regardless, say what you will, MOST (the VAST majority) of Android apps work on any Android device that meets the minimum OS version level (not counting apps where the developer chose to specifically target certain hardware - like a Tegra 3 processor).
No, I didn't know Gmail is in Beta. I have never used Gmail. Every Android device I've owned has come with a mail client other than Gmail, which I have always used. And, generally, they are more complete, in their functionality for working with my Exchange account, than the mail client that came on my iPod Touch.
Finally, I re-read my previous comment and I request that you please explain how you can conclude, from that comment, that I don't see any of the faults that Android has. I see many of them. If you are not a regular Android user, then I probably see many more than you. However, I posted here in response to a comment that, in its essence, implied that Android had faults and Apple/iOS had none. I have multiple iOS devices, multiple Android devices, and, of course, multiple Windows-based devices - and just gave my TouchPad (webOS + Android) to my mom. I like whatever works best. I don't participate in fanboism for any platform. I just like the facts and I don't like when people post things that aren't factual or imply things that are not true. And it seems (to ME) that I see the most fanboism and posting of incorrect information (about the competition) info here. It may not be as common for Apple fanbois to read and post on Android sites as it is for Android fans to post here, but that doesn't mean there isn't just as much BS posted about Android.
There is a simple excuse, they used one chip. They can do simul voice and data on 3G, but neither Verizon nor Sprint have the infrastructure to do that. All the Canadian providers can, but it seems that's not the case in the US. The fact that it can be done on AT&T and in Canada on Bell, Telus, Fido, etc says that there's something that Verizon and Sprint were unprepared for. If I recall, Sprint couldn't do it on the 4/4S either. Sounds like they should have worked that out.
On ANY other provider, you'll still get simul voice and data, but the data will be 3G speeds. Last I checked, my 3G speeds in a mediocre area were enough to stream HD video content without a blip, I know because I've used it, many times. But that's not enough for what you're doing during the time you're making a phone call?
Find me another smartphone in the same class, weight, thinness and design of the iPhone 5 that has the ability to do that, please. I'll wait. Everything is bigger, heavier and less well designed. Personally I'll take a thinner form factor and deal with the relatively RARE situation where I would have to deal with the "measly" 3G speeds while I was on a call. Just because you don't like the "Excuse" doesn't mean that it's not a valid reason.
By next year there will be further advances in the chipset and I wouldn't be surprised if they were able to add in the extra chip needed to do this without losing anything they currently have.
And ANY company that have more Smartphones than I can count on my hands and feet "technically" sell more. When you have phones cheap enough that people can get it for $50 without a contract, you're attracting a market where people don't care about the phone they're getting, they want a cheap smartphone and that's that. It's like trying to say that Hyundai is more successful because they sell more of their vehicles than, say, I don't know... Rolls Royce. Or that Timex sells more than Rolex. Of course they do, there is more in the market. But you could combine every single product that Samsung sells and they would still not remotely have an equivalent demand for even JUST the iPhone. Factor in the iPad, Mac Books and so on, and Samsung looks 2nd rate.
As to the fragmentation, you are clearly missing the point I was making. NO developer is going to create an app "JUST" for Samsung, in what world do you think Samsung is that established that developers would simply not support HTC or the multitude of other Android phones out there? An Android developer has to ensure their app works on as MANY phones as possible, and in the end there are multitudes of phones, many Samsung, that get slapped with the "this app won't run on this device" error. I know, because I've heard the complaints from friends and family. A developer can't just say "OH, I'll just make sure my device works on the S3" and leave it at that. Samsung has made drastic changes to their hardware prior to the S3, different chipsets, and so on, so not only does a developer have to ensure compatibility with all other Samsung phones, but also with HTC phones, and LG, and anyone else with an Android phone.
With regards to your comment that most apps will work on Android based on their OS version, that simply emboldens my point I made about Android and the ability, or INability to easily push updates out to their device. My friend who owned a VERY recent device had to wait almost a year for the carrier to flavor the firmware update. Which means that every app which required that OS simply wouldn't work. Versus iOS which the moment it's released, you can install the update. It boggles the mind why Android phones have to go through that crap every single time. I had to deal with that over 5 years ago with my Windows Mobile phone, yet it's STILL going on to this day? That's insane!
And you replied to a guy who commented about seeing the pros and cons to both OS, but stated there isn't the fragmentation on iOS versus other phones. It's TRUE. It's simple math. Apple is building the hardware and is building the OS. There are no additional add ons like most android phones, Samsung takes Android and then fiddles with it. They're taking an OS that is NOT designed directly for their specific hardware and they are tacking on more things to their devices on top of that, and they also have to ensure that their various flair works across multiple devices with very different hardware. THAT is fragmentation, and it's something Android and ALL its makers have to deal with. Everything with Apple is in house and designed for one standard OS that runs across all devices, hence no fragmentation. Nowhere in the post you replied to said that iOS was faultless, you merely implied that from what you read.
What does the mail client on your device have to do with anything? You got all huffy about Siri being "in beta", implying that it cheapens it somewhat. I commented that Gmail, one of the most insanely popular internet mail providers in existence, has been "in beta" since it launched eons ago. Just being "in beta" doesn't mean it's not sturdily functional or highly efficient. Siri is still a work in progress and it's improving by leaps and bounds constantly.
As for your comment about the Android post and such, you make no sense. You, as someone who clearly dislikes Apple, went out of your way to read this post, watch the video, look at the comments and reply to one person who simply said they felt their S3 was on an OS that was fragmented. Hell, you were talking to someone who OWNS an Android and voiced their frustration with their experience, and you took that on as your personal charge to be the captain of the Android is Awesome attack. GO back and read the post you replied to again. Please.
But if you don't want, I'll bullet point it for you:
- Many of the Samsung features are gimmicky (seriously, I can tap and share a playlist? I can palm swipe mute pause snap etc?) I looked through the list on the Samsung site and it's clear they just tried to stuff as much as they could to try and seem ahead of the pack. I personally still think Siri is somewhat of a gimmick, but I think there is far more solidity in its features than palm swipe pause mute or flip over to mute.
- A large 4.7" screen feels to large for him
- There are pros and cons to both OS
- There is more fragmentation on Android than iOS (a singular OS that runs across cohesive hardware)
- There is less fragmentation that there was before
- Even after he rooted, he still found there was lag in the S3
- Roms are finicky, which is entirely true. They're written by people who are not teams of developers, they're just every day people putting things together. The same goes for Jailbreaking on iOS.
I see *NOTHING* there that is a bald faced lie or a charge that you needed to come in and correct. They were opinions and real life experiences from a person who went out and actually purchased a phone. I highly doubt his goal was to buy an S3 just to not like it so he could go back to being an Apple sheep, if it was then damn, that's a LOT of work just to be able to post on a comment thread.
Say you aren't a fanboi all you want... But you are. It may not be just for Android, but it's clearly AGAINST Apple. You're an Apple Hater Fanboi, clear as day.
Oh, and a troll. At least I'm here because I have Apple devices and have an interest in them. Do you see me voicing my feelings about the features I think are stupid about the Samsung line on their blogs? No, because I AM NOT A TROLL.
Wow. You 2 just had a long argument over absolutely nothing. Congratulations!
My Wrong-o-meter pegged early, so I didn't read this whole post.
"There is a simple excuse, they used one chip. They can do simul voice and data on 3G, but neither Verizon nor Sprint have the infrastructure to do that.

You have not identified an "excuse". You have identified a decision Apple made (to use a single chip). That does not explain, nor excuse, why they made the decision to "design" a solution that does not allow simultaneous voice and 4G. The Apple fanbois hold up Apple as the Ultimate Designers - and they couldn't design the iPhone 5 to do what all the other 4G LTE phones have been ablel to do for 2 years?
Also, for your information, Verizon has AT LEAST 3 phones that CAN do simultaneous voice and 3G data (as well as 4G). The HTC Thunderbolt had SVDO (i.e. the tech that supports doing Simultaneous Voice and EV-DO data). The HTC Rezound has SVDO. And, it is my understanding that the Samsung Galaxy S III also has SVDO. I can say from personal experience that I could sit in my car, talk on the phone via Bluetooth, and run Speedtest on my old Thunderbolt to get 700k - 1Mbps downloads over a 3G (EVDO) connection at the same time. Similar, for my Rezound.
So, there's 3 phones for you that can do it and are in the same class as the iPhone 5. Please post back after you've gotten yours.
Please tell me why the iPhone can do voice and data over 3G on AT&T, Telus, Bell, Fido but not on Verizon or Sprint? Sprint, who couldn't work with the iPhone to allow that on the 4.
Why should Apple have to change their design because Sprint and Verizon can't do what AT&T and the others can?
Apple DECIDED to choose to use one chip because of space, that's the closest reason I can. Possibly to reduce cost. As I said, find me another phone in that SIZE, which the ones you mentioned are NOT. None of those phones have profiles even close to the iPhone 5.
Thunderbolt - 177g
Rezound - 170g
S3 - 133g (an all plastic body as well)
iPhone 5 - 112g
Simply put, the iPhone 5 CAN do simultanious voice and data, just NOT on 2 of the carriers due to them not being able to accomodate the iPhone design apparently.
And I doubt I'll be posting back, I'll be too busy enjoying my phone :P
Hey genius, both Verizon's and Sprint's networks can handle simultaneous Voice and data just fine. The Qualcomm chip in the iPhone 5 is also fully capable of handling it on both cdma AND gsm networks.
In this case, however, it was Apple who chose not to connect their second antenna to the SoC to activate that capability. Instead, for those two networks, they (APPLE!) chose to utilize their second antenna to enhance voice connectivity.
It was Apple's screw up, not the two carriers.
If you're going to rant on something, you should at least get your facts straight before doing so...
ps. iOS just works better, you say? And Siri is STILL in Beta (a year later)?? And did you hear about how you can put an iPad in Guided Access mode (if you have iOS 6) but then you lose all your security as soon as the user turns the iPad from Portrait to Landscape? Oooo! Give me some of that!
If we are funny, then you Anti Apple Fanbois are sad disappointment of stepping in dog poo. Have you NOTHING better to do but troll Apple blog posts? Seriously? You hate Apple so much you have to find out everything that's going on!
Makes me think this is like those people who are so anti gay, they tend to be holding in the fact that THEY are actually gay. Or like when you were a child and you'd pull the hair of the girl you really liked, but you just couldn't say you liked them.
(I know that's not the case, but geez you guys are an embarrassment with your persistence in posting on Apple news items!)
This is typical of a company or even a sitting president. You know you're fighting a losing campaign when you can't defend your product (or record) and start slinging mud like a child.
I agree. Reeks of desperation. I've owned the Note, and the S3...this isn't the best way to enlighten anyone to another product that's actually pretty good! Purposely alienate millions of iFans? Not very smart when you're trying to attract new customers.
I'm not a big apple fan boy like you. I have an iphone 4 and don't have any Samsung devices but I find it funny. Apple might have started the trend but they are now falling behind.
I agree with you. They studied Apple's success and copied everything they made and did, to get their position. Samsung is sad, and I hate the company. I like the TVs, but not the company or phones.
O c'mon thats funnier then $*&^! girl: the connector is going to be all digital! what does that even mean!?? ha ha i just waited for will ferrell : no one knows what it means but its provocative, its get the people going!!
My two favorite lines:
"The headphone jack is going to be on the BOTTOM...boom!"
"We're gonna get that...for sure. Maybe not this time...but the next time...right?"
Be mad all you want, it's a good, funny commercial.
Umm market share..
Samsung Electronics Co: 32.6%
Apple Inc: 18.8%
Not sure why they would want to be in Apple's position.
Also this ad is hilarious.
And Hyundai has a larger market share than a high end car manufacturer. Timex has a better market share than Rolex.
Apple has what Samsung will never have, deep brand loyalty. Just because you have dozens of devices, some cheaper than flip phones, doesn't mean you're better. As I commented above, Samsung would kill to have the kind of draw Apple has.
Remember, Apple has ONE phone on the market, Samsung and Android have countless others that have saturated the market, of course their share is going to be larger.
And go to the stocks, look at Samsung vs Apple... then come back and tell me Samsung is the king thanks to their market share. Apple has steadily increased, and my biggest mistake was not putting a ton of money into their stock when it was freaking $80. God how I kick myself... a $10k investment would have netted me WELL more than I make in a year. I didn't even like Apple back then but I knew their stock was the golden boy, why didn't I use my brain? UGH!
Ummm... Just so you are aware, which you must not be, Samsung is traded on the Korean stock exchange not domestically in the US. But, in US dollars it is valued at around $1210 or so. Try again.
Okay, their PER stock price is more, but Apple stock is worth a total of 655 Billion, versus Samsung's 182 Billion.
Stocks split, so they're lower in price and there are FAR more of them.
Last I checked, 655 billion is a WHOLE lot more than 182.
What the hell are you talking about? Apple was notoriously greedy with their stock under Steve Jobs. That's well known fact. They didn't pay dividends until just the last few quarters which made their stock worthless to investors. That's why 401k funds avoided Apple stock. It didn't pay squat on returns.
Give it a few yrs & after a handful of splits, which are inevitable, & we'll revisit the topic of market caps & total valuation. I'm betting Apple's won't be so high.
Fact is that it's worth 5x more than Samsung.
Just because Samsung's lesser stock prices are higher doesn't mean that it's better than Apple's larger valuation, it makes no sense and now you're trying to backtrack and use other arguments that are entirely beside the point.
Apple stock is just under $700 a share at $655b
Samsung is just over $1210 a share at $182b
It doesn't take a person versed in stocks to know that no matter WHICH way you slice it, Apple stocks are worth more.
I've back tracked on nothing. I simply proved you have no clue what you are talking about. Market cap valuations mean absolutely squat to investors who want dividends. Samsung stock has been valued higher than Apple's for a decade or more. Period. No matter WHICH way you slice it.
Now go back to enjoying your phone. Stock talk is obviously not in your wheelhouse.
Ummm... do you remember the who Mac vs. PC advertisements that Apple did? This is exactly the same thing...!
How soon you forgot those Apple Microsoft commercials. I have both Apple iPhone and Windows Phone, so I can honestly state your either ignorant or simply another corporate loving iSheep sellout.
Buy whatever you like but don't tell lies about Apple never having made false ads. Try and replicate the behavior of Siri as shown on TV and see if it functions like the commercial. Straight out FALSE ADVERTISING.
C'mon, be an independent thinker dude!
Funny I don't see you iSheep saying the same when it was apple and their Mac vs PC ads?
When Microsoft finally started their own ads giving money to people and trying to get them to buy a MacBook with it and finding out how overpriced they were, Apple begged them to pull the ads. Because qhwn you only have $500 dollars, you can buy a million different kinds of laptops but no MacBook.
It's the height of insecurity and obsession when you focus so much on your opponent instead of executing your own business properly. Not to mention the incessant copying. ..that $1B fine may well have been too lenient.
LOL, yeah, it is pretty insecure to be constantly focused on your competition. You know, like iMore does when they write about a Samsung advertisement. Again. And what the heck does the fine have to do with the commercial?
Seriously some people need to take a chill pill. Did I really just say that? Ugh. But it's true.
And no matter if you find them stupid or amusing, obviously if they are getting blogs like this to talk about them they are pretty effective.
Come on people, Apple did the same thing with the genius commercial. It may not have been directed at a specific PC maker, but it was bashing Windows as a whole ("So this is nothing like a Mac?"). If Samsung wants to bash OSx or iOS, it can't bash it in general without bashing Apple directly. Many companies have ads like this, not just Samsung. Lighten up and enjoy the humor in this ad, the Apple ad, etc.
I'm strictly iOS but this ad is hilarious. How is the "precious jewel" line not funny?!
Come on the ad is funny, i am a iOS/Android user but i really found it great and made me laugh a bit.
For me it's easy to each his own wether you want to buy a iPhone, Lumia, Galaxy, One, BB or even a Nokia 1100 i don't care everybody works or whatever to buy the phone they want, no need to be a dictator and force someone to buy something they don't like. Just my 2cents.
I agree. Although I personally love my iPhone and iOS, I also think that no one phone is perfect for everyone or superior to all the others. I don't care what phones other people buy because I'm not the one selling them- I just use them. To each his own and everyone should stop taking it so seriously.
Its funny because parts of it are true. Otherwise, why even write the article...
And there are plenty of examples right here on this site. It is pretty silly to get so excited about an incremental update. It amazes me, especially in this economy , that there are so many people who have nothing better to do than stand in line for days for a gadget they likely don't have much need for. Those people do deserve to be made fun of. Sorry if I offend anybody.
I've always thought the same thing. It's not like there will be a shortage or something. I've noticed people in these lines that probably should spend that money on decent clothing first. Or maybe a car or house payment. I'm speaking anecdotal here but it's true. People who are obsessed with social status or celebrity worship will sacrifice life's necessities to be 'one of the 1st with the new iPhone.'
Perhaps Georgia should do a Zen & Tech about this behavior.
The phone can & should wait.
Just a sad attempt to jump on someone else's bandwagon, basically. I especially dislike the notion that people are going to be turned off to a product because "old" (meaning anyone over 40) people enjoy it. That's fairly insulting to the younger generation; to suggest that they're so shallow that they'd abandon something just because a different generation enjoys it.
They make a good point about people getting way too exciting over pointless, incremental updates to the iphone, but these are the same points that people have been making fun of for 5 years now. The joke is really tired at this point. It's stupid for people to get excited over such nonsense, but it's even stupider to point out how stupid that is. Nowadays making fun of that is just a tired cliche.
The one point I agree with is that the S3 has a lot of features the iphone does not. No denying that. However I also have to point out that most of those features are things no one really gives a crap about. Exchanging playlists? Emailing while sending a video? Those are hardly dealbreakers. Point is, no one's really feeling the loss of such features with the iphone, so to show a group of iphone fans salivating over them just doesn't ring true.
ok...that was hilarious....really.....but i'm still gonna go with the iphone 5 cause at least next year i will be able to update ;)
If only Samsung actually come up with some new idea of their own and not just stole then maybe they could do ads like this,but everything they have is taken from other companies.....I.e. the tv. Voice from apple and motion from Nintendo and microsoft.
That "touching phones" stuff... That's the stupidest thing I have ever seen. He had to press it all the way onto the pack of the phone. High risk of falling, and just a waste. Samsung added tons of functions like these so people would think that the GS3 was revolutionary. It is not.
Oh, and the sapphire stuff that makes it look like a "Precious jewelery", is just on the camera. Why? Because it is almost impossible to destroy, and the camera lens will then have no chance to get scratches. Do you want scratches on your camera lens that will ruin your photos? Then go on and buy a GS3.
As someone who owns a MAC, and is geting ready to retire my old Blackberry for something new very soon, I found the Samsung commercial very funny. Honestly, I thought it was brilliant.
You're not going to hang on to your BB and wait for BB 10??!!
I have given BB too many last chances. Palm, to Blackberry (for almost 8 year)...I will more than likely get an iPhone since I only have positive things to say about Apple customer service with my Mac. That's a few months away though.
I was hanging out with a buddy last night and this commercial came on. We both looked at each other had the same reaction; it's pretty good. Those people in line did look and sound ridiculous in a way that seemed real. Not that I really am interested in NFC or the beam thing but IMO to the average person it's a pretty effective ad.
The commercial is funny, if you don't think so it may because you relate more to the people standing in line. I'm a mac - I'm a PC - no Apple's never done anything like this before.
Jeez, relax some of you, it's an ad. Companies have been mocking the competition's products in ads for years. Hardly anything new. If you take off your Apple colored glasses you'll find it was pretty entertaining.
The ad is great. The people here that are getting upset are only getting upset because they are the idiots that they're making fun of. I love my iPhones and MBPs and all that but these commercials are pure comedy.
I think the commercial was pretty funny. I enjoy a good laugh from ads. In any event, people shouldn't call out Samsung for attacking Apple in their ads when Apple ran ads that trashed Windows for a long time.
Im sorry, but I love this commercial- its total BS as far as Samsung vs Apple but very entertaining. Samsung will still not do as well as Apple in sales, so they have to create these ads. Im gonna watch it again for another laugh because the actors are hilarious. You cant fault Samsung for their efforts, in fact I applaud them. But when you truly make an inferior product, you have to intentionally focus on the competition in an ill attempt to make their product appear inferior to yours. Apple doesn't worry about that. They know what they have.
I would never wait on line for hours on end or over night for ANYTHING...Not a celebrity, not a pair of sneakers, and not a phone...Samsung makes the point that people get overly excited for incremental upgrades, but from a business prospective, wouldn't you want your loyal consumers to react the same way? You want your consumers buying your products and spending as much money as possible. Obviously, you're targeting iPhone users in this ad, so why insult them by portraying them as ignorant and naive? It only makes me dislike Samsung even more (they do make great TV's though) although I'm far from one of those iPhone users they portrayed. As a loyal iOS user, the best way to market your products to me would be to get across a message that says something like "hey, we know you're comfy with iOS, but give the SGS3 a try, you'll be pleasantly surprised. We have all the things the iPhone has and more. Check this out..." I can totally understand why they have to compare their products to Apple since Apple has a mob of loyal followers. The same way the Mac had to compare it's products to PC's since they have a mob of followers comfy with their products and unwilling to give that up. The SGS3 is a great phone, but they're marketing it the wrong way in my opinion, especially after a U.S. court ruled that you copied Apple products.
I think the main problem here is that the ads almost make fun of the consumers themselves, not the competition. And the problem with that is that's gonna leave an unpleasant taste in their mouths for some people who may indeed not enjoy being made the butt of a joke by a company. I'm not personally offended, frankly I don't care as I won't be standing in line one way or the other, but it seems to me all Samsung is doing here is potentially alienating some possible future customers.
Unless you are the guy that came up with the iPhone 5 new features spec sheet, why are you getting your balls in a knot? I swear some of us act like we are on the Apple payroll. The ad was funny.
I will admit the Galaxy S3 is a nice device.... But the main problem here is that if you have a GS3 you are most like the only person in your group of friends that has it because all your other friends have iPhones... Therefore all the cool "features" wont apply to you.
Sad attempt here... Really desperate.
I said this over at 9to5mac yesterday and i'll say it here (although, I honestly expected better from iMore):
Every single year people act as if no company before Samsung has ever put out an ad campaign that goes after a rival lol. I can't believe how hard it is to comprehend that Samsung might want to actually sell some phones. Back when the Android OEMs did this by listing specs, you all said that Apple sells an "experience", and that was why Android would never catch up. Stop whining about business.
no one phone is better or worse than the other. they all have their features that make them stand out above the rest for a little, but in a months time, something better will come along. (literally with WP8 ;) ) and figuratively (i think i spelled that wrong))
to be honest, some of the commercial was true and some was not. i am not going to name specifics because it does not matter. i personally won't get an iPhone, but my wife is getting the 5 hopefully tomorrow like many of you. DO I want to see it. Hell yes because i love technology. but would i use it as my primary phone, NO, not really unless imore gives me the free one from the contest.
it does not matter the company, ever company that puts out a commercial sometimes bashes someone else. i did not see or hear the word apple mentioned (but i was not looking for it either)
it was a funny commercial and that's that.
Oh lighten up, Chris and guys.. As Steve Martin said, "comedy is not pretty." I'm a massive Apple fan but this was just a funny commercial, pure and simple. Sometimes people identify so much with inanimate objects though, that they take something like this as a personal insult but mask that pain by claiming it's really only about the objects in question. Regardless, chill.
Just the other day I was at best buy, buying a new HDTV. I was about to buy a Samsung, but the started thinking about all the law suits, and how they try to rip off apple. So instead I decided to buy a Sony instead.
look m a android fan.. but love the stylin of iphone. n to b honest this ad is cool. everythin shown in this ad is truth.. bigger screen.. faster processor.. more features then iphone. blah blah.. but a die hard ifan will not b distracted by it now, but after steve jobs there is no one in apple to create that magical effort to make the product stand out.. if not this year or next year but eventually its will go down. n honestly iphone 5 has nothin in it that S3 doesn't have. so be sensible select the product that suits u.. rest is BS.

The amount of haterade going on is crazy. So many people feel that Samsung started all this bashing. Did we forget all the "I'm a Mac. I'm a PC." commercials?
Seriously, using both operating systems, they each have their own merits. The commercial is entertaining. It may hurt, but it also has truth to it.
Agree 100%. I found this commercial hilarious.
I love these ads and they are well done. If you don't find these observations humorous, them maybe you take this tech stuff too seriously.
I got a good kick out of this ad, because there is some truth in it, but the part that made me laugh the most of the things Samsung was bragging on are just "features" of the bloated TouchWiz UI that they slap over ICS. The same TouchWiz that I tossed in the trash 30 minutes after opening the box, rooting the device and going with a AOSP ROM(AOKP JellyBean). I actually own and love the GS III, and I will proudly tell people that it is the best phone that I've ever used. But I would recommend that you ditch the stock ROM. Is it better than the iPhone5? For myself, I say it is. For everyone else? Depends on how you use the device. If you want a device you can customize everything about, and have complete flexibility with, go with the GS III. If you like something fairly easy to use, that what you see is what you get, and/or if you are already familiar with, go with the iPhone5. By the way, I use both the GS III and a iPod Touch 4 every day.
Who is more douchey? The people who stand in line for a product they love? Or people who stand outside bragging how their "thing" is better either by saying so or blatant/innocent demonstrations. That commercial is as moronic as the company it represents. I also do realize that this commercial is meant for people who would never buy an iphone in the first place. So it's more of a political/ religious ad.
most iPhone users are dumb I mean the ad is true, android/wp users have had all the iphone 5 features for a year now.
I'm a huge Apple fan, and I thought the commercial was hilarious. Nice to laugh at myself once in a while. :)
One observation I did notice is Samsung doesn't mention the OS at all, I wonder why?...LOL
Regardless of what any of you say, iPhone IS falling behind, greatly. The SGS3 is the best phone out there now, but there are at least 3 other device better than the iPhone5.
2) HTC 1x
3) Motorola RAZR MAXX HD
4) LG Optimum G
5) iPhone 5 lol
I have had both the iPhone 4 and the S3. They are both great phones. Just came back to the 4S today. For those that are so uptight about this making fun of Apple... come on! Lighten up... it's funny as hell!
Samsung...the jealousy is strong with this one...
"It's like Samsung is trying to tell you that iPhone users are dumb people who get over excited over any tiny little design change or small feature."
It's not "like" they are trying to tell you that -- that is EXACTLY what they're trying to tell you...
...and they're right!
I think the ad is f'n hilarious. :)
let'S face its funny.... just like the mac and the pc guy.lol I work on an iMac at my office, I own both an Air and a MacBook Pro, an iPad1 iphone4 and a galaxy not to brag... about it, but i will wait for the IPHONE 5S....
Samsung has given up any hope of trying to be cooler than Apple.
They're just playing to lock up the #2 spot behind Apple, and they've done it.
(Just ask HTC, LG, Nokia, Palm, RIM, et al.)
Well, Apple did similar stuff with its Mac vs. PC ads.. I don't see this ad as a problem though, but is just funny. If you do love your iPhone, like I do mine, then you'll just ignore the silly comments in the ad. Apple was childish back then with the Mac vs PC ads, but they then grew up.. What did MS do back then? just ignore, admit to being a PC and ask 'so what?' I guess Samsung are the new babies in town so here's hoping they'll grow up.. Eventually.
I'm perfectly happy with my iPhone line of products and haven't found anything they mentioned significant enough to make me want to turn to the dark side.
But I laughed out loud (at work) at the 'the make the coolest adapters' reaction from the girl. To be fair, Samsung doesn't have a decade long cable standard either- http://www.cellularfactory.com/mod_dat.jsp?a=62
I'd be interested to see the marketing numbers from this year and last year's smeary style campaigns.
Exactly! Apple has changed their cable now ONCE in 9 years. Sure it would be nice if they used a standard that everyone else uses, and maybe I'll never fully understand the reasons why they don't, but I'm sure it's not just to be "difficult".
It is amazing how many cables Samsung did go through. Some phones had different cables for charging and syncing, but no, Apple is the big bad.
If the "next best thing is already here" why do they have to resort to making stupid ads like this. Just let the numbers (sales) determine what the next best thing is!
Never have I been biased toward a product. But I've owned a lot of Androids and they were all laggy and slow after a while. I'm now a iPhone 4S user and I've yet to experience any problems. And I could care less about widgets and customization because it does nothing but slow the phone down.
So here's my piece. The Mac Vs. PC ads were probably one of the main reasons I truly detested Apple years ago. I HATE attack ads. I think they're a sign of weakness and have no place in advertising at all. They're disgusting enough in the political circle, so to have them for products is just a shame. They're the equivalent of mooning people and going "na na na na boo boo, stick your head in doo doo". Apple dropping those ads was the smartest decision they could have done.
As for this ad, it not only wasn't funny, but it was uncomfortable in its stupidity. I have never, ever, ever, ever wanted to type an email on my phone while simultaneously watching a FREAKING VIDEO. And while the iPhone can't natively tap their phones together to magically transfer a playlist (really, a playlist?), apps like Bump can do so with just as little effort. And I'm pretty damn positive I'll be far more likely to find a friend with an iPhone than I am to find multiple ones with an S3.
like many have said, Samsung WISHES they had this much demand for their devices. They WISH they were this much in demand and WISH they had people that brand loyal. For each and every moronic step they take, they ensure that I'll be less and less likely to buy from them in the future. It's not that I love Apple that much, but the continued negativity from Samsung particularly is doing nothing to endear them to many people. If I were to buy any device at this point, I'd either go to HTC or a Windows Phone long before I'd consider anything made by Samsung.
I think Samsung should put more energy into trying to better their devices, and better their image, rather than *TRY* to make Apple fans look like morons, when again, Samsung would sacrifice their first born to have this kind of demand and draw for their devices.
Such butt hurt ignorance on display here in this comment thread. Grow a thick skin kids it's an ad. Apple made countless ads like this as has already been said. Where was the outrage? Oh that's right most of you were probably not out of middle school at the time or had no idea what Apple was. The obsession with this company & defending it's honor is just too funny. I think Apple is doing fine without your constant need to come to their defense.
If it would make some of you feel better, like say maybe Chris the author of this piece, I've done some quick research on how to cure what is ailing you here. Look in the mirror & pretend you are Justin Long. Then begin to say slowly "I'm a PC" 3 times while tapping your heels together. When you wake up it'll all be over. ;-)
Apple user's are a lot like the religious ignorant masses. You post a video on the web and you're certain to start a riot over a silly idol they worship.
Attack of the iSheep in 3 2 1....
This ad from Samsung is Genius and Entertaining, plus its amazingly accurate. Don't worry Chris, not only does Samsung have enough money to engage in Fantastic marketing such as this, it has more than enough money to fight the "broken" patent system. ; ) I wouldn't worry much.
I like my iPhone, and thats all that matters to ME. Why do people get mad at us for liking our iPhones? Samsung should stop trying to bash and actually show positivity towards their devices rather than negativity towards others. Simple as that.
I think the rebuttal to the commercial is pretty simple. Where is the media and consumer frenzy surrounding the release of the S3 (or any other Samsung or Android device?) We all know it doesn't exist. And Samsung WISHES it did...but it DOESN'T! Jealousy causes people to do and say some really irrational and stupid things. I think the commercial really shows how desperate they are. In the meantime...I can't wait until my iPhone 5 arrives tomorrow!!!!!
i own a macbook and i have to say it is a better laptop to use for my purposes and worry free from issues that i would get with a pc laptop. BUT i also just got the S3 and would prefer it over the I5 which is too restrictive and is overly hyped. I got my S3 for free and to pay 200 + for a phone that has not made big feature changes in my eyes from the 4S i would go with the S3...i love it and this commercial tells the truth. So to each his own but this iphone craze is overly hyped...

If you are a government leader, staff member or policy maker wanting to learn more about case management or what CMSA has to offer, please contact us at:
(501) 225-2229 or email us.
Case Managers are at the center of care delivery for patients. They serve as a patient advocate and resource as well as providing critical information and recommendations to the rest of the care team: physicians, surgeons, nurses, administrators, benefits coordinators, employers and family caregivers. In this role they break down silos, open up new efficient paths for health care delivery and ensure the adequate utilization of resources, all while focusing on the primary goal: effective care of the patient.
The Case Management Society of America is the oldest and largest professional organization dedicated to delivery of care management services across practice settings and care models. CMSA provides educational, networking and professional resources for its members and seeks to connect case managers, products and service providers, consumers and policy makers to ensure optimal delivery of care management services. This site is focused on helping legislators and policy makers better understand the role case management plays in health care delivery and how to ensure patients receive the best care possible.
On Sept. 27, 2013, the United States Senate passed S. Res. 214, a resolution declaring the week of October 13-19, 2013, as "National Case Management Week," to recognize the value of case management in improving healthcare outcomes for patients.
The resolution, which passed unanimously, was introduced by Senator Mark Pryor (D-AR) and Senator John Boozman (R-AR) in early August through a collaborative effort between the American Case Management Association and the Case Management Society of America to honor case management professionals for their contributions to health care.
CMSA shows support for Bill, which is designed to improve transitions of care for high risk Medicare beneficiaries
On September 14, Representatives Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), Thomas Petri (R-WI), Allyson Schwartz (D-PA) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) introduced the bipartisan Medicare Transitional Care Act of 2012, legislation that seeks to improve transitions of care for Medicare beneficiaries at highest risk for readmission as they move from the hospital setting to their home, skilled nursing facility or next point of care. The Case Management Society of America is in support of the Bill, which the organization believes would directly address continuity of care problems by increasing patient support and ensuring appropriate follow-up care during and after the transition period.
The legislation incorporates many of NTOCC's principles, such as aligning the transitional service requirements with NTOCC's "Seven Essential Intervention Categories"—seven key elements found in evidence-based care interventions— and the integration of all members of the care team in executing effective care transitions.
The full proposed text legislation is available at: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?r112:E14SE2-0027:/ or via PDF by clicking here. Also, click here to view the CMSA Letter of Support.
CMSA has prepared a resource kit to help policymakers better understand the role of case managers and the how effective case management services provide better outcomes for patients, controlling health care expenditures and improving the performance of the US healthcare system.
The kit includes easy- to-understand background information and material for individuals new to case management as well as policymakers well versed in health care issues. The information is provided in a variety of formats so you can easily share this material with your colleagues and constituents.

Caregiver resources are available on Medicare.gov/caregivers. These resources provide insights about choosing a drug plan, selecting a hospital, finding local support and care options, and more. And be sure to remind caregivers that many Medicare preventive services are available to their loved one with no co-pay, like an annual wellness visit, immunizations, and some cancer screenings. It's just another way you can help caregivers. Access Caregiver Resources

Review of Bangkok
Take flights to Bangkok for fragrant street-side food, riverboat rides and Buddhist palaces gleaming gold at sunset.
Things to do
Travel Bangkok's Chao Phraya River as the setting sun silhouettes the profiles of ancient wats (Buddhist temples). Amulet sellers line Tha Maharat, leading to the Grand Palace's spires and bell-shaped stupas.
Siamese kittens, pungent spices, fighting cocks, hand-carved masks and reams of technicolour fabrics lure holidaymakers to Bangkok's labyrinthine Chatuchak Weekend Market. Hone your haggling skills and take an early morning Skytrain to explore the market at its coolest.
Plumes of chilli-scented smoke rise from the flaming woks in Banglamphu's narrow sois (backstreets). Chang beer in hand, sit at one of the curb-side stalls, where small change buys you a feast of pad thai noodles, tangy papaya salad and deep-fried shrimp.
Flights to Bangkok take revellers to neon-lit Khao San Road, where tuk-tuks dart like fireflies amid the beer-sipping crowds. For tattoos, massages and the occasional passing elephant, this hedonistic party street is the place to go in Bangkok.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Bangkok. Time your Bangkok city break to catch fireworks and marigold-strewn streets at the King's Birthday on 5th December, or water-loaded fun during Songkran (Thai New Year) in April.

Amazing city full of history and modern life!08 Mar 12
I consider Bangkok to be an amazing place there is a lot to see from the palce nd temples tht mark their history to the active modern city with lots of things to do and shop. Most people speak a little English but sometimes can be still challenging. Some of the vendors (tuk tuk drivers, "guides") in the tourist area are a little too agressive, but when you enter to the sites you kind of forget about them and enjoy the place. Thai food is said to be great but not to my taste but Bangkok has a lot of options from international fastfood chains to big restaurants offering a big variety to chose from, so is great and friendly on that.Oceanlook - Kenya

By the 1980s, multiple-night concerts at smaller, single venues were giving way to giant arena shows, and event tickets began to reflect the change from up-close-and-personal to binoculars-advised. Concert tickets from the beginning of this period still sported background colors, band icons or small, familiar symbols on their faces and were computer generated, standard in size and included the all-important seat and row number data. By the end of the decade, much of the special imagery had disappeared. Although these tickets may be less flashy, they are mementos of some of the greatest shows in rock, punk rock and heavy metal history.

Join the Crew at Project Nsearch Today!
About Project Nsearch and what to post here.
When Project Nsearch was first started by in January of 2010, it was a new type of news site that dealt with information not normally found on the mainstream news. Nsearch Radio covered these same topics up until Nsearch.com was launched in January of 2013 to reach people about God and his plan for us! At that same time Nsearch Radio changed into a Christian based radio network that teaches about God in a fun and inspirational way and covers news from a Christian perspective. We knew that Project Nsearch needed to change to help people by providing them with useful information concerning God, natural cures, free energy and other things which can help them. God doesn't want us to be scared in these tough times, he wants us to have hope through him! Project Nsearch is happy to announce these exciting changes officially began on October 14th 2013 when Project Nsearch was relaunched on it's mission to help others!
One thing that we have realized over the almost 4 years now is that God is the most important thing in all our lives whether we realize it right now or not. Without God we have no hope at all in the world we live in today. Many of our members have grown closer to God over the last few years also. Wanting to glorify God in all we do is what led us to transform Project Nsearch into a beacon of light in world getting darker all the time. We will no longer spread fear since it only gives free advertising for satan who wants people to feel hopeless. The cure for fear and hopeless is Jesus Christ!
We hope that all of our old members will help us as we embark on this new journey to help and inspire others and ultimately bring others closer to God. But even if you don't believe in God right now, that's okay! You will of course always be welcome to post here if you want to help others in some way.
God wants us to help others and spread seeds so others may know God! So the new Project Nsearch will be strictly focused on those goals. We want any type of stories that inspire or provide hope. There are thousands of sites out there that have 99% negative news but Project Nsearch is a website where you come to get the good news and the solutions!
We are asking for everybody's help in posting stories that:
Inspire Hope
Help people with their health
Show people how they can save money, start a business, get a new job etc
Show people working together
Allow others to know that God is real and loves us all!
We want our content to be evergreen and helpful. In other words, the information you post today will be just as helpful and relevant today as it will be 3 years from now. That's the major factor when posting. Make the story something that will help others, give hope or inspire and that isn't based on politics or time frames.
To insure that we only get the right kind of stories and to make this site of higher quality, we will be moderating all submissions so we can insure all new content meets our new purpose. We will do our best to approve all stories as soon as possible and usually within 12 hours.
If you're a Christian already and want to help spread seeds then we'd like your help on our ministry site, www.nsearch.com by posting and sharing content and also by posting Christian content on Project Nsearch.

Featured Articles & Videos to share with everybody you know!
The following information should be shared with as many people as possible because it is undeniable proof that God is real and that he is our only hope against satan.
Ron Wyatt discovered Ark of the Covenant and Blood of Jesus!
Ron Wyatt was able to use science to prove 5 different stories in the Bible! The Bible is God's word and it's been proven by over 2000 prophecies that came true! Watch all of Ron's incredible videos on the Project Nsearch youtube channel. They are very important to share because they give the scientific evidence for the stories of the Bible! Ron scientifically proved the following stories in the Bible using science: Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah, Ark of the Covenant, the Red Sea Crossing, Mount Sinai and he even discovered the Blood of Jesus! Most Christians have never seen this amazing material because Satan controls the media!
Ron Wyatt finds the Blood of Jesus on the Ark of the Covenant! When analyzed by Israeli scientists, they all converted to Christianity on the spot! They found that this blood was very special. Normally, blood has 23 chromosomes from the mother and 23 chromosomes from the father. But when they analyzed this blood from the Ark, they found it had the normal 23 chromosomes from the mother (Mary) but only one Y Chromosome from the non human father (God)! The blood was still alive! Spread this video everywhere so people know that there is now scientific evidence that Jesus is the Son of God! This information has been completely hidden from the world by the corrupt media!
Shawn Weed, US Marine Veteran dies and goes to hell! Hear his incredible story about what happened to him and why he was allowed to return to warn others! I put this in here because hell is where everybody goes that denies Jesus Christ. Those that deny Christ are the antichrist. Click here to see the video of his incredible story! Please share it with others so they may know that hell is real!
"How Doctor Coldwell is curing over 92% of Those with Cancer!"
Hear the incredible story of Dr. Coldwell and how the medical establishment and others have done everything in their power to kill him and censor his information! Be sure to SHARE this information with everybody you know so we can cure more people of cancer. Most people would not die from cancer if they learned what Dr. Coldwell recommends! Unfortunately, alternative media gatekeeper Alex Jones has intentionally censored Dr. Coldwell after being begged by four doctors and Mike Adams to get him on his show! This is absolute evil and there's no excuse for it!

Fasel hopes 2018 Olympics will spur hockey development in Korea
PYEONGCHANG, Korea The IOC Coordination Commission for the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games had its second visit in the northeast of the Republic of Korea this week and praised the progress being made by the local organisers.Among its members are IIHF President René Fasel and former U.S. womens national team player Angela Ruggiero.We hope that the Games will spur the development of both male and female hockey in Korea and we hope that they can be part of the Olympic tournament in their home country, said Fasel.Right now, the International Ice Hockey Federation places a major focus on Asian hockey not only on Korea, but especially also on China and Japan.Following two days of meetings, the Commission, led by IOC Executive Board member Gunilla Lindberg, underlined some of the PyeongChang 2018 Organising Committee (POCOG)s recent successes and looked positively on some of its upcoming milestones and planning.Speaking at the end of the meeting, Commission Chair Lindberg commented: Weve once again seen good progress from PyeongChang 2018 and an excellent team effort from the Organising Committee, all levels of government, and the Korean Olympic Committee (KOC). Delivering the Olympic Games can be achieved successfully only by working as a single unit and our Korean colleagues have shown that unity once again on this visit. We have been impressed by their ability to collaborate closely from the provision of skilled administrators at POCOG to the finalisation of the venue master plan to ensure that these Games will be a success. The PyeongChang 2018 team is giving its all for the Olympians of 2018.Former ice hockey player and Olympic gold medal winner Angela Ruggiero (left) and IIHF President René Fasel (right) are among the members of the IOC Coordination Commission for the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games. Photo: Minjae KimAmong POCOGs many successes over the last year, the Commission singled out the launch of PyeongChang 2018s new emblem, the finalisation of the venue master plan, and the progress in defining venue legacies as areas of particular note.The new emblem was launched on 3 May 2013 in Seoul and PyeongChang simultaneously, in front of a live audience of 2,000 people. The emblems ability to capture the culture of Korea and to reinforce PyeongChangs vision of welcoming the world to its Games was highly appreciated by the Commission members. The new emblem has now been rolled out across all of PyeongChangs communications channels, and is playing its part in inviting people to discover New Horizons.The locations for all the sports venues for PyeongChang 2018 have now been defined and work is progressing rapidly on the design phase to ensure that all will be ready in time for the test events ahead of the Games. With four-and-a-half years remaining until the Olympic flame arrives in the country, POCOG is well-placed to ensure that the athletes have the best possible fields of play upon which to compete. The clustering of sports venues in Gangneung will also create many potential opportunities for an exciting spectator experience in 2018, which POCOG must now begin working on maximising.The PyeongChang 2018 team and the Commission also agreed that while good progress was being made, some areas required additional efforts to ensure their success. These included finalising the accommodation inventory for the Games, in order to ensure that the supply matches as closely as possible the needs of the Games; getting the marketing programme fully under way; recruiting specialist members of the workforce, so as to maximise the transfer of knowledge that PyeongChang can profit from during its observation of the Sochi 2014 Games; and ensuring that a competitive home team will compete in all sports at the 2018 Winter Games.

Selecting Ski Pants and Bibs
Regardless of which winter sport tops your "must do" list, wearing high-quality ski pants during your outdoor activity is absolutely necessary. Even the most skilled skier or snowboarder can take a fall on the slopes and get caught in active snow or sleet. And without proper ski pants to keep you warm and dry, your fun day on the mountain can turn into a rapid retreat to thaw out in the lodge. There are two primary types of ski bottoms to consider purchasing this season: ski pants and ski bibs.
Snow Pants
*Most ski pants designed to be worn with a baselayer pant.
>> Shop Men's Snow Pants
>> Shop Women's Snow Pants
>> Shop Kids Snow Pants
>> Shop Snow Bibs
Snow Bibs
>> Shop Men's Snow Bibs
>> Shop Women's Snow Bibs
>> Shop Kids' Snow Bibs
Water Protection
In all winter sports, water protection is a vital factor, and ski pants come in a variety of different water protection levels. For skiing and snowboarding, it's best to wear pants made from synthetic fabrics that are specially treated to be fully waterproof and breathable.
Fit & Size
Consider the following to help you find the perfect fitting snow pants.
Ski Pants and Bibs Features
To help you zero in on the right pair of ski pants for your needs, it's also a good idea to consider the many value-added features that some garments offer, including:

My husband was showing his ring to his friend and it dropped onto the ground(cement) a piece of the ring chipped off.... he continued to wear it until we replaced it. A week after the chip he noticed a crack developing up from where the chip in the ring was. When we first got the ring he loved it... the look ... design... color... weight. Everything about it was nice. Except it didn't last!!!! :( I am so sad about it. A few friends have tungsten carbide rings and their rings have held up nicely. The reason why we chose a tungsten ring is because of it's durability. My husband is in the Army and serving in Iraq so we needed a durable, strong ring. After further research(because I just couldn't understand how this could happen to tungsten) some of the tungsten rings can chip or crack if dropped if they aren't made with nickel alloy. Some rings are made with a different alloy that makes the ring less durable. This ring doesn't specify if nickel alloy is used ... but I am assuming it is NOT! If you do decide to buy this ring(after all it is a nice looking ring!!!)... make sure you get the protection plan just in case it cracks... !! Unfortunately we didn't purchase the protection plan... Oh yeah... and order a 1/2 size smaller.
After almost 24 years of marriage to a very hardworking mechanic, he said that he would very much like to have a wedding ring. He never wore one before this, because his first one almost took his finger off at work during an accident. Now, 22 years later we ordered this beautiful tungsten carbide wedding band and my husband displays it PROUDLY. It's very masculine, stunning in its brightness yet extremely classy. We looked at other Tungsten Carbide rings, but were unable to afford them on our budget. Nothing could have pleased me more than seeing this gorgeous ring for my husband at about 18% of what the stores are charging for it. I cannot recommend this ring enough. It's romantic without being feminine, it's classy without emptying the bank account, and after all of these weeks it does not have a SINGLE scratch, dent or imperfection on it. Absolutely buy this ring. You will not be sorry, and your man will look great wearing it without being self conscious about "jewelry"!! Thanks Overstock!
I purchased to replace my husbands wedding band that was damaged, and he loves this better than his first one. I would recommend this to any man who is really tough on rings.
My fiancee and I bought these for our wedding rings. We ordered our normal sizes and and they fit perfectly. They look nice and mine goes well with my engagement ring (sapphire in white gold). I recommend them for men and women--not too big even for medium hands.
Good quality ring for the money. fits as sized. the actual ring is much darker in color than the picture though. tungsten carbide is a much darker metal than the one pictured. The picture looks as if it is white gold or platinum ring.
Ring was sturdy, felt durable, and was super comfortable for my husband to wear. It's a bit darker than shown but he really likes it. We also ordered a size too small originally but had no problems with the exchange because we had purchased the warranty. I usually don't recommend purchasing a warranty, but do it just in case this time! :)
The ring seemed like a good value, but it had to be returned. I ordered this for my husband because he is very sensitive to metal. Unfortunately, this ring made him break out.
Great quality ring for the money. fits as sized. the actual ring is much darker in color than the picture though. great price!
My husband was amazed he loves his new wedding band.
The ring was just as they said it was. The sizing was perfect. A great value!!!
