Samsung mocks Apple over large smartphone release

The Philippines branch of Samsung Mobile fired a shot at Apple mocking the company of its past stance on the matter of large smartphones. The late Steve Job famously stated that “No one is ever going to buy a big phone,” and Samsung knows that perfectly well. Here’s how the Koreans responded to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus announcement last night.

The quote from Jobs dates from July 2010 at an event related to antennagate.

As you may recall Apple released the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus at 4.7″ and 5.5″, respectively, a display size for smartphones, which Samsung embraced long ago. Naturally, the comment on Samsung’s side is snarky and goes “Guess who surprised themselves and changed their minds.”

While at it, let’s also remember another popular Apple ad regarding the perfect phone size, released back when the iPhone 5 became the company’s flagship.

Less than 12 hours ago, HTC took a jab at Apple, basically saying the company is late to the party, since the HTC One (M8) has been around for a while now.
