I imagine this can be done with almost all handsets, laptops, etc. I'm guessing this is more "human nature" than Apple Fanboy'sm at a large consumer scale.
Considering how many times in the trials people have been unable to tell APPLE AND SAMSUNG products apart, you'd think readers here would realize that those people are obviously going to have trouble with products in the same family!
This does raise an interesting point about HN as a whole. I remember in one of the Apple/Samsung threads someone brought up the point that people couldn't tell Apple and Samsung products apart, and in that case it was used as an attack against Samsung and 'proof' that they were copying.
In this instance the exact same idea is used as a defense for Apple.
Yes, the cognitive dissonance is staggering. But we are able to see it because we don't worship Apple. This makes me wonder what cognitive dissonances that I might have, that I am completely blind to, which others can see through right away as they don't subscribe to the same world-view.
Also this is a piece on a late night comedy show not some random sampling of people outside the sets of the Jimmy Kimmel show. Edited to make it funny as well (as they should btw).
I'm wondering how this is being extrapolated to mean "Nobody can tell the difference between iPhone 4/4S and 5".
