Three 'Phones Are Good'

‘Phones are Good’ humorously counters the negative narrative surrounding mobile phones by showcasing their positive impact on historical events. Directed by Ian Pons Jewell, the spot reimagines pivotal moments in history if smartphones had existed, such as Henry VIII using Tinder to find a wife or cavemen ordering Deliveroo.
