After weeks of hype, here it is, the Samsung Super Bowl ad featuring the Galaxy Note with a backing track from, once famous rock band, The Darkness. The Galaxy Note was just only recently launched in the US. The ad follows along the “Samsunged” track laid down by Samsung’s latest series of commercials (you can see the whole “Samsunged” series here).
In terms of the commercial itself, it’s nothing special actually. In fact, we’ll go as far to say that the previous Samsung ads were so much better and judging by the Twitter responses after the ad aired, it’s pretty much safe to say that many that followed the hype were underwhelmed with the ad as well. We expected much more from the ad considering the hype and the quality of the previous ads in the series.
When we heard that the Samsung ad will also feature footage shot using the Galaxy Note, we expected to see the device used extensively in the production of the commercial. Once again, we were left disappointed as only a few snippets of the ad had footage recorded using the Galaxy Note. Out of the full 1 minute 30 seconds duration of the ad, we saw less than 5 seconds were footage taken using the Galaxy Note and they are not immediately noticeable as well.
If you didn’t notice the snippets in the ad shot using the Galaxy Note, there are on min 00:55, 01:02, 1:12 and min 1:16. In each segment, the snippet was around a second and no more than two or three seconds, max.
It’s quite a “meh” ad for us. What do you think? Sound off in the comments section.
