If you are an iPhone 4 user and fed up with the problems with the device thaen venting your anger on twitter will be a very good idea. Doing so you might run yourself a chance to get a free Samsung Galaxy S series phone absolutely free.
The news will seem as a prank to many but it is actually true. Samsung is contacting twitter users that have had problems with their iPhone 4 and offering them a free phone. This is a part of the latest marketing strategy by the company. The problems in the iPhone 4 have given other mobile makers to promote their devices by pulling Apple down over the flaws in their much hyped device.
For the company a spokesman confirmed this by saying “Recently there has been a real increase in online activity from consumers dissatisfied with some of our competitors’ products. We decided to contact a cross section of individuals to offer them a free Samsung Galaxy S as a replacement, as we’re confident that once people have the phone in their hands, they’ll see how impressive it is for themselves.”
Samsung is making the consumers choose and decide for themselves the brilliant feature that their Android phones have over the problematic iPhones. The approach is to let some phones pass on in the hands of the people even though for free, so that they get familiar with the device and move over the craze for Apple’s iPhones.
The iPhones have been widely criticized for the problems such as repeated dropped calls, and sudden unexplainable inability to make or receive calls or send texts that is caused by the single antenna in the device that receives when the device is held only in a particular way.
People who’ve tweeted about their difficulties with the handset are being asked to submit their contact details to receive a free handset because Samsung is so confident about the superiority of the Galaxy S. the new series by Samsung comes with plethora of features, it runs on Android 2.1 and features a whopping great big 4.0-inch AMOLED display.
Samsung confirmed it has a genuine account on twitter and explained it had undertaken the move in response to a increasing number of users handsets of other companies that promise a lot but deliver nothing much.
Samsung has also launched an advert mocking Apple’s antenna issues, in which it uses the image of a full bar of signal to promote the new handset.
It is only for the time to show how far will this tactic of the company to buy favor with the market for its device go. Will be ardent Apple fans give up their iPhones for Android phones?
