Hot or Not
In the commercial, introducing the iPhone 6, Apple asserts that the iPhone six is technologically more advanced than all of the previous apple products and any other competing product. The producer supports this assertion by stating it has a wider screen, better software, and uses aluminum instead of glass. The author’s purpose is to persuade the consumer into believing that the iPhone 6 is exactly what they need to accommodate their everyday life. The author uses an upbeat tone to appeal to the technology driven young adults.

Amongst the fearful citizens, there is one small coterie whom rebel against the restraints.
