The site just links to .mov files like this one

http://images.apple.com/media/us/iphone-6/2014/cb62df28-5fd5-4ca9-a9be-78f836f209b0/tv-spots/huge/iphone6-huge-cc-us-20140922_r848-9dwc.mov

which on desktop launch in QuickTime (through some JS creating an EMBED element in the page). On an Android HTC all browsers try to launch it with the Streaming Media Player, but this fails just like on the Flame. Seems Apple don't worry about platforms that don't run QuickTime?

Not a blocker and these videos do not work on Android either as stated in Comment 3.
