Social media has been abuzz since Apple debuted iPhone 17 at “Awe Dropping” on September 9, 2025. Amid the sea of posts, Samsung has taken a dig at Apple while resharing a veiled roast from 2022.
“#iCant believe this is still relevant,” Samsung Mobile US X profile tweeted. The post quoted a tweet from 2022 that said, “Let us know it when it folds.” The tweets refer to the company’s foldable phones, a technology Apple has not introduced in its devices.
The company has also reacted to other posts about Apple’s launch. In an X post, it reacted to a post by American YouTuber Marques Brownlee and wrote, “Actual innovation > hype #iCant.”
The company has been using “#iCant” in all its recent posts related to the Apple launch.
What did social media say?
While Apple fans were quick to defend the company, a few chose the route of hilarity while replying to the tweet. A few slammed Samsung instead.
An individual posted, “Stay relevant for the next decade.” Another remarked, “Even we can’t believe that how folding phones are relevant.”
A third posted, “Apple will forever be better than you guys.” A fourth wrote, “Remember when y’all said u wouldn’t remove headphone jacks where they at?”
