In a not-very-subtle ad released on November 5, smartphone maker Samsung mocked its rival Apple by taking them through the last ten years - and leaving them there. Titled 'Growing Up', the advertisement follows a devoted Apple fan from his first iPhone in 2007 all the way up till 2017, where he switches loyalties. Through the process, Samsung expertly mocks every drawback in iPhones through the years by comparing them to Samsung - starting from Apple's lack of storage space to their non-waterproof phones.
The ad ends with an ex-Apple fan walking past the queue for Apple's latest iPhone X.

Here is how Twitter has reacted to the advertisement:
They also noticed an Easter egg
Of course, not everybody was happy with Samsung's strategy
