Samsung spends more money on marketing and advertising than any of its competitors, and that includes Apple. In fact, it’s not even close — the company’s budget is in the double-digit billions, which actually tops many of the Samsung’s rivals’ annual revenue.

The ads Samsung’s various agencies around the world come up with vary pretty dramatically in terms of theme and style. Sometimes Samsung focuses on bashing Apple, other times it touts the merits of its own products.

This time, Samsung struck gold with an ad that very well may move you to tears.

FEATURED: My dream of having Google take over my iPhone is almost a reality

%name FEATURED: My dream of having Google take over my iPhone is almost a reality by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

If you would have told me a few years ago that Google would be the company behind some of the best mobile software in the world – across all mobile platforms — I would have laughed in your face. Google has been the search king for more than a decade and there’s no question that its advertising products are gold, but early versions of Android were… not great.

Fast forward to 2015, however, and Google is the brains behind some of the most beautiful and useful apps on the planet.

%name This is the harshest take on the Apple Watch I’ve read yet… and it makes some very strong points by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Hands-on Apple Watch review roundup

%name Hands on Apple Watch review roundup by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
