This commercial is horrible. I see where they’re going with it and I know what they’re trying to do because, after all, I am on the Android Authority website. Microsoft just finished unsuccessfully trying a similar ad campaign. While the failure of it has been linked to two rich dudes trying to connect with regular people, I didn’t like it because of the baited questions that never really got answered by the ad.

“Can I find this somewhere cheaper?” Come on! Splashing a new (not eye-catching) phone in front of them and telling them to buy it is not going to make people switch carriers, extend contracts, run to stores or anything else. Show them the Shop Savy app after asking the question then you have their attention. That’s what got me hooked on the phone.
