> it shows pretty much nothing You would think that the commercial is an opportunity to convince people why they should want to buy the new phone. The only selling point they show the color yellow. To me this only demonstrates that the new phone is not worth an upgrade unless you really want yellow. > Meanwhile the Google one I just watched it and I know I saw a bunch of AI features they're adding, but I couldn't tell you what a single one of them is. I agree it's vague, but I'm giving them a break because it's not even released yet. It's not totally void of information though. Didn't you at least gather that they're integrating generative AI features into search? Did you see the new "ask a follow up" feature? Or the "make me a training plan" example?

It’s not like that’s the primary ad for iPhones. They didnt show this at WWDC. It clearly is about yellow, which for many people is more important of a driver than you clearly think.

  > It’s not like that’s the primary ad for iPhones It's the ad they blast all over TV, so I'm not sure what you mean. It's also a month old with 20M youtube views. It just seems a bit hypocritical to criticize Google's ad for lack of information while defending Apple's.
