A Polaroid is the best representation that can be made of a scene on Polaroid photo film. The lens, the paper, and other factors will always make the representation, to a degree, not real. That was the Samsung exec's point. It's a little disingenuous, though. The discussion shouldn't be about "real" vs "fake" it should be about "faithful" vs "misleading".
