I really don't like it all that much. It doesn't hold the elegance of the brand for me.

looks cool in a way but i guess, there is no idea behind...and the idea of 'thanks a million' asks for a lot itself....

nice Illustration.

Why do you guys analyize every ad, so much in detail? yes there is no idea here, but there IS no need for an idea. It looks fab, great illustration and prompts you to read the copy and that's it.

Why do people think that if a product is well-known, it can get away with a stupid idealess ad?

Estoy deacuerdo, es sólo un anuncio de Iphone, y por eso está aquí. No tiene creatividad. Parece más que un anuncio, una nota de prensa.

De hecho, apple suele tener buenos titulares, y quí sólo es información...

Vaya..

pero de todas formas, como somos iphoneros, nos hace ilusión ver un anuncio de apple aquí, o no?

I would love to see that without the clumsy icons. They killed the white!

Yeah, I have to agree with the naysayers here - this is not the usual Apple elegance, and gone is the clean, white space feel. There must be a way to convey the same message but within the brand's familiar, simplistic tone? There is. But this aint it.

Guest's picture

perspective is totally off. C'mon, really, this is the best that 2ecds could do?

Congratulatory ads are supposed to be bad.

Apple and rush of elements, two different things if Apple is not going to change their brand appearance.
