Apple Sues Samsung Electronics Over 'Galaxy' Phone, Tab


Recommended Posts

Wasnt my point. Someone said that Samsung phone is a **** copy of the iPhone. So my response was at least the antenna works properly on the Samsung phones.

Doesn't change that many things, including the home screen and charger cable, are a total rip-off. It also bears no real relevance to this topic to begin with. Beyond that the iPhone 3GS, which shares the most similarities with the Samsung Galaxy S, doesn't have any antenna issues.

Again, wasnt my point. I was commenting on the crap copy comment, not whether or not Samsung ripped off anything.

But to your point, Apple is a bully and likes to push anyone around that they can. Sooner or later, like all bullys, someone will come along to put them in check. They bitch and moan about companies copying them while they blame phone issues on the user. Sooner or later Apple's ego and arrogance will get the better of them.

I totally agree, Apple has been very arrogant. Especially in the past. In 2007 - early 2009 I had enough clashes with the company when it came to their quality control, although their mentality towards customers has changed in the past year when dealing with them on the phone. However, in this case I do think Apple's right. Samsung, among others, have been copying Apple's design to extreme proportions. Honesty, them copying things down to the USB cable is just pathetic and can't be rationalized anymore.

Yea, no duh...and this is the last time I am reply because you just dont get it.

Everyone here knows the 3gs doesnt have the antenna problem and that the 4 does. So why I didnt state that in my original post but next time I will make sure to point out all the variables so there is no more confusion.

Oh no, both of them are square! So should all phones be a different shape, along with all UI's consist of all having different shape icons, and styles of showing them? This is just one of the reasons I dislike the Apple company.

I do get it, however I'm saying it doesn't make much sense since most of the Galaxy S' design comes from the iPhone 3GS and not the iPhone 4. So if you're going to make a comparison at least to it right.

If this is true, then isn't it the other way round? i.e. Apple copied iPhone designs (2G - 3GS) from Samsung? In any case, Apple's claim of phone design or connector design are stupid.

I have no idea if it's true, who knows. What's stupid is that Samsung even copies the damn Dock connector cable. There's absolutely no reason for them to do that except to copy for the sake of copying. It's pathetic.

Who cares if it the dock is the same. In fact, ALL connectors should really be the same. It's pathetic that instead of a universal dock size, everyone uses their own size, so no power connector or anything can be interchangeable, usually.

It maybe rejected because of the source, but the F700 was announced, but never shown at CeBit 2006. The first image of the phone didn't come out until the phone was properly announced in February of 2007.

Again, it will probably be ripped apart because of its source. http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/04/19/android_fans_accuse_apple_of_copying_samsung_first.html

The same article mentions that LG complained that iPhone looks similar to Prada so Apple's claim that Samsung copied is still...stupid (again, if true). In any case, Apple Insider sourcing Gizmodo - not the best neutral sites, one is fanboy site whereas other is we-are-not-fanboy fanboy site.

Well, what about from the horse's mouth?

    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/  
    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
