Why it worked
The video likely resonated due to its relatable and humorous take on a common societal observation, using popular and visually appealing products (iPhones and Samsung phones) to create a humorous juxtaposition.
Summary
The video humorously contrasts the common perception of teachers complaining about low pay with visuals of them owning high-end smartphones like iPhones and Samsung devices. It implies that despite their financial claims, teachers often possess expensive technology.

Product placement
iPhone: ACTS - it is shown as a desirable object that teachers own, implying it is a status symbol despite claims of low pay. Removing it would change the video's message. Samsung: ACTS - it is shown as a desirable object that teachers own, implying it is a status symbol despite claims of low pay. Removing it would change the video's message. Apple: APPEARS - it is a logo on the phone, not actively used or central to the message. Removing it would not change the video's message.
