Apple vs Samsung lawsuit, whose side are you?

Samsung Side

I cant seem to like a company that patents shape and patent trolls it to everyone. Good thing Apple seems to be the only company that did it.

imagine if others did it like Henry Ford.

When Henry Ford made his car then saw other manufacturers make cars that has similar designs from him.

He probably thought that “These guys are copying my style”.

Good thing instead of suing he went the other way which should be what apple should have done

He went with ” Ok lets make my next design better than all the others”

im with apple’s side… design, style, samsung just copied it.. just like how koreans copy tech from taiwan and others

The fact that Apple’s been using Samsung’s chips, they should instead pull out their accusations.

“If Apple ends up winning this case against Samsung — and either stops Samsung from releasing their phones and tablets to the market, or charges them a hefty license fee to do so — does anyone really believe that the market will suddenly become more innovative, or that devices will suddenly become more affordable? Similarly, if Samsung wins, do you really believe that Apple will suddenly slow its aggressive development of the iPhone and iPad? It’s certainly not what happened last time they lost one of these cases. ”

This will end up like Apple VS Microsoft. Sooner or later they will be partners.

“Regarding the user interface, Apple claims that Samsung copied three of their patented technologies for the TouchWiz UI which involves multiple gestures scrolling, zooming and panning and “scrollback”.”

Seriously? Wow! So in effect, Apple is saying that you can only move your fingers that way on our iPads… and on no other tablet! What a stupid patent.

Additional comment. I don’t care who copies or what. What is important if a tech company like Samsung can make a better product out of Apple’s design as accused.

So far Samsung is doing a marvelous job on making good quality Android smartphones. A friend of mine who is an Apple iPhone and iPad got curious of Samsung Galaxy SIII and Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. He lends a common friend’s Galaxy SIII and Tab 2 for a week. After that he disposed his iPhone 4s and iPad 3 and bought a Galaxy SIII and Tab2. He even bought a Nokia Lumia 800 for his second line. He has amazed how fast Windows Phone is.

Come on, Apple. Why don’t you just stop for a while and realize that Samsung is the one who manufactured some of your chips?

I go with Samsung, all this patent wars are rather silly. Patent for a rectangle =d

Though I have to concede some interface patents were violated.

Samsung side.
Because Samsung they know what consumer wants and needs. Remember Microsoft present before the tablet pc but its was copied by Apple and then claimed it.

Apple’s claims are beyond ridiculous. They think they invented the rectangular shape. THey think they invented the home button. They think they invented the touchscreen.

Not a single f*** was given when Mercedez Benz, BMW, Audi, Mazda and Honda made vehicles with four wheels with a circular steering wheel and 6-speed gear. Same with refrigerators, televisions, washing machines, and ovens.

Samsung all the way!

Samsung copied Apple period. Go and figure out from the time that Samsung came out with their own Smartphone til the time that Apple released theirs. And no, they are not douchebag. They are only protected what they created first. They were the first ones to introduce capacitive screens, when everyone else is using resistive screens, first ones to use accelerometer and everyone followed and first to use all icons on a phone and it just works and then everyone wants to copy it. It’s like seeing a Ford Fiesta on the road with a Cherry tag on it. That’s how I see it.

This lawsuit is not over yet cause the losing side will appeal to the higher court and will continue appealing until they reach the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will then issue the final verdict in regard to this lawsuit.

Hopefully, Apple should win this lawsuit; otherwise, Apple will lose the mobile market share to Android branded phones just like Apple loses the market share of PC to Microsoft in the 90’s after the Supreme Court sided with Microsoft in Apple’s lawsuit against Microsoft.

i feel both are great companies.
sum1 has 2 lead
sum1 has 2 follow
i side with what helps the masses = samsung, htc, sony, etc.
sum1 wil start clear glass touch phnes seen in avengers
then again sum1 has 2 follow..
:-)

whoever wins – consumers will suffer at the end.

innovation will end if apple wins

i’m on Samsung’s side – i worked in samsung, has a phone and tablet from them also so go figure

The jury are all Americans. Need to say more?

Siri is an innovation? WTF… All Apple did was buy the company, and bake Siri application into iOS and claim it as new. Similar existing application like Vlingo and SpeakToIt has been available to Android way before Siri was introduced by iOS. And by the way, thanks to Siri, Apple has now a technology to support their patent (unified search). Trollness at its finest.

You even consider retina display as innovation? Come on, it is just LCD with higher pixel and nothing more. It is not even Apple’s technology to begin with, but LGs.

iPod is nothing more than just another MP3 player. All Apple did was to make a hype out of it.

And proximity sensor, isn’t those already in existence before Apple’s. And Microsoft own the patent…

Who said that the first galaxy tab was DOA when released? Guess who’s going to jump into the 7″ tab market..

Who said that 3.5″ is just the perfect size for mobile phones? Guess who’s following Samsung for it’s screen sizes..

It is evident that Apple revolutionized the touchscreen, and with all due respects to the other camp, I surely think that Samsung has copied much from it. In fact, Samsung has been doing this for many years already. One example would be the era the of the dual-sliding Nokia N95 where Sammy also created their own version of the trade.

Google has already warned them of the possibility of lawsuits with the way they designed their handsets (Galaxy S, S2?) and hence they are now in the thick of it.

I like Samsung as a brand, but my side is with Cupertino this time.

Ako side ako doon sa mananalo.

letting apple win is like killing the blessing of technology and innovation.

also, their patents are way too general, that they resemble elements that can be easily found in nature, available to everyone.

patent wars and troll wars – so non-sense, only lawyers gain something.

jury wins, imagine brand new MacBooks for them, new iPads, maybe even the iPhone 5.

I hope they both lose so my Optimus L7 doesn’t look bad. I applied for an event on LG facebook page. Hopefully, I can win another one for my girlfriend or it I could win 4X HD for her, it will be superb.

hahaha talo samsung. gaya gaya kasi eh! buti nga. bayad kayo ng 1 Billion USD.
