http://danoday.com/blog New television commercial for Verizon Droid X "does" have a serious problem that limits the advertisement's effectiveness, as explained by TV & radio advertising expert Dan O'Day.
Great insight and I agree, to add to your statement, the bionic eye can be seen as a concept as part of the user experience with the brand. Concepts tell a bigger story than just a straight forward "oh hey this is the item, here's what it does"...blah.
Phones have NEVER been advertised on their physical size. And they still aren't. Screen size is a different matter though.
5 Years ago "smart phones" were just getting revved up, and could not be very large due to then current market mind-set and hardware prices. As prices have come down, data gotten faster & cheaper, & apps more plentiful, people want bigger screens - just like on a desktop computer.
@hgallegos915 you my friend, have been "had" by marketing genious. 2 years ago you were probably "amazed" at how small the new phones were. Pretty funny isnt it? Im just sayin!
@mopierotti yeah but its still STUPID as hell to watch a movie on it. "Takes it to a new level" is garbage talk in any aspect. And the biggest phone on the market is exactly the OPPOSITE direction they were going 5 years ago. They are just remarketing the same old shit over and over again.
I liked this video........Hes just explaining how stuff that's getting sold to us can fool us into buying it.

haha.... thanks for this. It was driving me crazy.
I came on youtube JUST to bitch about these two commercials.
They are SOOO bad. Predictable, adolescent. It is like they are trying to sell them to first graders... Maybe they are!
