When should we trust our senses to give us truth?

We mainly rely on our senses to perceive what is happening around us. Also, senses help us survive on a daily basis and really are an integral part of our lives. An example of how senses can help us survive- In 2004, many animals such as elephants and flamingos escaped the tsunami in Sri Lanka and India, the animals knew the coming disaster as they have significantly sharper senses then man kind and managed to escape the absolute carnage prior to it occurring. However, our senses could also defy us- For example Apple make their new I Phone 6 series, their latest flagship of smartphones seem an absolute beauty as they make it really appeal to ones senses(mainly sight and hearing) in the advertisements. This is utterly and completely misleading as the phone in reality is average at most, compared to its Android counter parts and the deluded public fall for the same trick over and over again. This is where our senses can defy us.
