iPhone 14 Plus: “A Battery That Keeps On Running”

He’s well known for appearing in the car-themed Fast & Furious series, and he’s also said to love cars in his private life.
This song expresses his deep affection for cars.

This is a commercial showcasing the comfortable lifestyle you can achieve by combining Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip5 and Watch6.
It highlights how their integration makes things even more convenient and how everyday life becomes more stylish.
The song used is “Drumroll,” a track whose powerful beat and light rap accentuate the stylish vibe.
Apple Trade In
The Apple Trade In commercial featured a song packed with onomatopoeia, didn’t it? It was pretty striking, so I bet many people remember it.
The song is “Ching Ching,” by rapper Ms.
Jade and singer Nelly Furtado.
In the track, the title phrase is repeated while it depicts a party getting lively.
By the way, “ching” is an onomatopoeic word for the sound of glasses clinking together.
Google Pixel #BestPhonesForever “Halftime”
Like football players huddling at halftime to plan their next moves, a certain company’s smartphone team holds a meeting on how to take on their rival, the Google Pixel 8.
The rival packs tons of features, but “we’ve got the looks!” declares the coach-like smartphone.
After rallying the team and sending them back onto the pitch, it turns out the coach smartphone is actually on friendly terms with Google Pixel—making for a curious, whimsical commercial.
The CM features ‘Guerrilla’ by American singer-songwriter Remi Wolf, adding an extra layer of cool to the already polished image of Google Pixel.
Google Pixel 9 & 9 Pro: “Your journey expands. Capture it together.”Hiroe Igeta
This commercial for the Google Pixel 9 and 9 Pro is set in Finland.
Hiroe Igeta and others enjoy an authentic sauna, followed by an impressively bold scene where they plunge into the Baltic Sea instead of a cold bath.
The ad also shows them using a Google Pixel to film each person individually, composite the footage, and edit the background to create a lovely two-shot photo.
It effectively conveys both the high functionality of the Google Pixel and the fun ways you can use it.
