I was shocked to see the front-page/full page ad for iPhone 4 !!! Thought why on earth Apple was promoting iPhone 4.
Wondered why was it not 4S !
After few days, there is a front-page/full page ad for iPhone 5 in today's newspaper!!
The ad for iPhone 4 has gone into page 2 ( inside cover)... again full page and for iPhone 4 ( not 4S)!! Was it a 'teaser' !?!?
Also, does iPhone or any Apple gadget need a front page, full page ad?!
iPhone has not captured the imagination of many in India. I find most using old BB or Samsung. Wonder how a generation missed out on iPhone. Reasons are familiar - expensive, restrictive ( vs Android - we love 'freedom' !!) In the process, fan following for Steve Jobs are lower in numbers too.
There is no doubt what is best in each of the categories - 'phone or pad'. Of course, no competition for 'pod'
But the ad campaign defied logic..... May be something intelligent will unfold in near future.
