Apple, the tech titan, has recently launched a captivating ad film in India, showcasing the resilience of its latest iPhones. The ad, aptly named ‘Wreckshaw’, is a testament to the ‘aerospace-grade’ aluminium construction of the iPhones, demonstrating their ability to withstand the rigours of a fast-paced rickshaw ride.
The ad begins with a scene that is all too familiar to millions of Indians – a bustling road, a speeding rickshaw, and a passenger engrossed in her iPhone. The protagonist, engrossed in her device, suddenly loses grip of her phone, subjecting it to the mercy of the bumpy ride.
What follows is a series of scenes depicting the iPhone enduring the harsh interiors of the rickshaw, emerging unscathed and undamaged. This sequence brilliantly illustrates the durability of the iPhone, a feature that is of paramount importance to users who are constantly on the move.
Interestingly, the ad cleverly incorporates a scene of the protagonist watching a cricket match on her iPhone 15. This scene resonates with millions of cricket enthusiasts who often watch matches on their devices during their commute, despite the risk of damaging their devices.
This ad is a part of Apple’s ‘Relax. It’s iPhone’ campaign and is the first locally produced ad in India. It is set to be broadcasted across various TV and digital platforms, further expanding Apple’s reach in the Indian market.
Apple’s strategic move to produce local ads is a part of its broader strategy to expand its footprint in India. The tech giant has been making significant strides in the Indian market, inaugurating its first physical stores in the country just last year. This move signifies India’s growing importance as one of Apple’s key markets.
In addition to its sales efforts, Apple has also been focusing on bolstering its manufacturing capabilities in India. Recent reports suggest that approximately 14% of Apple’s iPhones are now being manufactured in India. This is a clear indication of Apple’s commitment to make India a significant part of its global supply chain.
In conclusion, Apple’s new ad film ‘Wreckshaw’ is not just a testament to the durability of its iPhones, but also a reflection of its understanding of the Indian market. By incorporating elements that resonate with the Indian audience, Apple is not just selling a product, but also building a connection with its consumers.
