Apple iPhone 5 Promo Video’s Social Commentary

Watch New Apple iPhone Promo Video

I found this iPhone Promo video, hilarious, but in the same time a bit sad as it pokes fun at our media-centric culture. Although some of the lines were meant to be hyperbole, the truth in the commentary rings so true.

Don’t want to spoil it so watch it then read the rest of the post!

“People only use iphones to take photos of their food, they are sad and alone so they use pictures of their food to create the illusion of a fulfilling life…”

Ouch.

Yet isn’t that what a lot of people do on facebook? Not neccessarily with food, but with all sorts of pictures & updates?

“…these pictures look so good that no one would never imagine you lie awake at night wondering why you can’t feel happiness”

Double ouch.

Iphone 5 Promo Video - Food“… it’s photos are sure to garner all the likes, hearts, pluses, pins, stars, reposts, reblogs, reretumbles, retweets, that you’ve used to replace the human connections in your life…”

Wow. Painfully true.
