I'm sure there's plenty more. Are they trying to miseducate the kids or make them believe it's okay to have negativity in their lives. first rule of thumb anything or any model will sell regardless what the names are if it's a good product. so no need to bust their asses to find a very cool or catchy name. it will simply sells *** samsung 123abc period who else aggrees that corporate monkeys/marketing geniuses who name these phones are bunch of crack heads?

Answer 1

people especially teens like cool catchy names.  As for the misspelling we all know it is misspelled and it is phone.  I am not going to run out on my next term paper (if i had one i am an adult) and say the man glyde by.

As for the negative i don't see those as negative. Razor you shave with one. Envy ok so envy is a deadly sin but the idea is if you have that phone they are envious of you. They are sinning not you.  

Finally it is much nicer to say something small and quick.  That is why they are  called cell phones  or just cell.  They are not cellular phones like they are supposed to be

We shorten thing in society or give them names all the time.  

refrigerator= fridge

Television = TV

cars were once automobiles

and the list goes on and on.
