In tomorrow's nightmarish hellscape, robots shoot craps and Samsung Galaxy is your only friend

Hey, nice Samsung Galaxy you got there! Whoa, whoa, wait... you sure you want to turn that thing on? Are you physically and emotionally prepared for what happens next? See, in a world where space travel knows no boundaries, Facebook has its own planet, and Samsung makes Android-powered phones, cute robots ride (yes, ride) i7500s from heavenly body to heavenly body in search of entertainment and friendship. Follow the break for the whole video, and watch really closely for the part at the end where the Galaxy collides with Earth and accidentally causes an extinction-level event.

[Paul @ Jul 10th 2009 2:39PM]

what's up with sammy ripping on megaman?

[Tanku @ Jul 10th 2009 2:40PM]

Trying too hard?

[wodahS @ Jul 10th 2009 2:41PM]

Sound in space? O.O

[OneLove @ Jul 10th 2009 2:44PM]

nice

[Fais @ Jul 10th 2009 2:45PM]

WTF!!!

[Mic2000 @ Jul 10th 2009 2:47PM]

Hard critics, I love it and I hate it

[tampa03cobra @ Jul 10th 2009 2:48PM]

Could the guy in the photo look any more like an MTV worshiping, hippie loser?

The key to success in advertising handsets in the America's is an attractive model, usually with more silicone then the device itself.

[NeoJew @ Jul 10th 2009 3:13PM]

Like at 3:28?

[Chrisboff @ Jul 10th 2009 7:22PM]

Remember that this is an Italian advertisement, not targeted at Americans.

[denson_paul @ Jul 10th 2009 2:49PM]

i like the phone though.

[AlDeezy @ Jul 10th 2009 2:50PM]

and that's why you don't do drugs kids.

[hett @ Jul 10th 2009 11:20PM]

That's EXACTLY WHY YOU DO DRUGS!!

[bk7 @ Jul 10th 2009 2:59PM]

I hope the running out of fuel moment isn't a metaphor for the phones battery life :S

[Commander P5 @ Jul 10th 2009 3:03PM]

All right, all right.. this phone is crappy and the guy is "an MTV worshiping, hippie loser" only because the phone
in callled Samsung Galaxy and NOT Apple i-Something (tm)..

This phone is wonderful, and if the "galaxy of free software-gadgets"-thing is really this good, you could bet that
this little shiny thing will be my next phone..

Ah, and i think that it's battery could be changed by yourself.. for free (don't count the battery cost, of course :P )

[tampa03cobra @ Jul 10th 2009 5:43PM]

Oh no,

Don't try to make me out to be an apple fanboi, he is an "MTV worshipping Hippie loser" because he's in his 20s and is dressed like a girl with earrings and bracelets. If he was holding an Iphone I would also say " in addition he probably didn't pay for his own education, thinks affirmative action isn't racist, and obviously thinks a 199 dollar phone anyone can get on a contract is a status symbol." (Friendly stab at my fellow Iphone owners)


Nothing to do with the phone, but I feel really creeped out when I see "men" dressed like rejects from a panic at the disco concert.


To be honest, I think android is much better with hard keys. As a poster in another thread pointed out, when it comes to running games, emulators, certain apps, ect on android, it's hard to beat some hard keys. Any true productivity device will have to have a hard keyboard of some kind, the on screen keyboards are cute for text fiends, but for people who have to use enterprise email ala exchange, a full fledged Qwerty (IE Blackberry, E71 ect) is really the only way to get anything done. I had a 3G Iphone for about 8 months and found it just didn't cut it when it came to managing my email, so back to the BB I went for work.

[Dagreenman18 @ Jul 10th 2009 3:06PM]

Nice phone, strange ad.

[Samurai Jack @ Jul 10th 2009 3:06PM]

So many lawsuits waiting to happen... Paramount for the Star Trek rip off... Capcom for the MegaMan rip off... John Williams for the Star Wars music suite rip off...

You're better than this Sammy...

[andrew @ Jul 10th 2009 3:06PM]

Dang... WHY DIDNT THE SILLY ALIEN GO TO THE FACEBOOK PLANET AND GIVE US A PREVIEW OF THE FACEBOOK APP! AHHHHHH....lol

[ryan @ Jul 10th 2009 3:10PM]

wow. this was a tragedy

and

where was porn planet?

[WIS @ Jul 10th 2009 3:47PM]

... and people made fun of Microsoft ads.

[edgar wong @ Jul 10th 2009 3:52PM]

really? really? really!!!!

ummm, im not sure what else to say :(

[Carlos G @ Jul 10th 2009 3:56PM]

I don't know what's dumber. The commercial, the dude in the commercial, the Mega-Man ripoff or the person who posted this whole video in the first place. Lately I have been seeing way to many dumb posts on Engadget. I guess there aren't too many new things to report on huh?

[RaQ Holiday @ Jul 10th 2009 4:40PM]

Yeah, I want this phone.

But uh... I'm not digging the ad lol.

[Jimmy Gross @ Jul 10th 2009 5:36PM]

The youtube video is cool and the android is cute.

[Jeff Morgan @ Jul 10th 2009 5:57PM]

This was obviously directed by Steven Spielberg, with a score by John Williams.

[Gregorian @ Jul 10th 2009 6:34PM]

So Android games consist of crappy card games and chess?
That's kind of lame.

[Jordan @ Jul 10th 2009 6:53PM]

Anybody notice the end, where the flick was the wrong way (hand flicked DOWN) in order to produce the page down scroll? On Android, you flick up to scroll down, down to scroll up, etc. It's like moving a piece of paper under a mounted lens.

[Valicore @ Jul 10th 2009 8:11PM]

Ma dai, Samsung, pensi veramente che questo video attirerà gli italiani? Dimmi che scherziiiiiiii. Samsung, do you really think this is going to attract users in Italy, or anywhere else? Gahhh.

[JohnTitor @ Jul 10th 2009 8:16PM]

Super Mario Galaxy FTW

[Ravnos @ Jul 10th 2009 10:10PM]

The Samsung Galaxy isn't my friend until it comes with 850/1900 HSPA.

[andy @ Jul 10th 2009 10:53PM]

need... more... kool aid...

[yrag @ Jul 11th 2009 1:53AM]

. . . and yet some how I have no interest in the least.

. . . maybe if they had used more sparkles and lens flares . . .

[UnReal31337 @ Jul 11th 2009 5:41PM]

It's not really it's own world. It's the country of South Korea.

[phozon @ Jul 12th 2009 8:15AM]

who's the hunk in the pic?! :)

[Logout @ Jul 14th 2009 12:51PM]

Wow, this cartoon is so cute!
I love it and make me smile! For a istitutional product video I found it very funny, and also well done from the artistic point of view!
I want more... maybe a second episode, with more planets and adventure story! :D

[nostarme @ Jul 20th 2009 9:16AM]
