A new ad from Samsung has started appearing for some people searching “iPhone 6s” on Google, and it’s a pretty hilariously formatted attempt at hijacking searches for Apple’s rumored handset. “Awkward You Obviously – Mean S6 – samsung.com,” the advertisement reads, placed at the top of search results. It’s not clear if this is only appearing on mobile nor exactly what triggers the ad, but it’s definitely a pretty funny attempt at taking advantage of a convenient (or, inconvenient for Apple I guess) naming similarity.

This was a thing last year too. When I searched “iPhone 6” the top result would be a sponsored ad for the Galaxy S5. This was before September 10th, of course.
Ridiculous company, Like Child in thinking.
Is the ad even in English?
“Awkward you obviously.”
“Mean S6.”
“samsung.com”
I don’t want a mean phone. That must be why it dies after only four hours…
