HQ: Why do I feel both companies have started hiring "experts" to look into each others clauses?

Is this for the consumer's benefit?


I like your thread of thought. But really the essence of all the legal tussle is to gain larger ground in the iPhone & SmartPhone market. I guess Apple knows that Samsung is taking it in Africa, Asia and doing favourably well in Europe and I guess North America. This is definitely good for the iPhone, smartphone market, thus good for the consumers.

Apply will win cos they first took Samsung to court. It will be stupid of them after that, infringe on Samsung right without doing the proper thing.

12 inches!:
The problem started whe APPLE started patenting and suing for rounded curves and hand gestures on touch devices. I think patent things such as that is CRAP. And winning such cases is more crap. So no one can complain when Samsung sues APPLE? The question is what should be termed copying? So long as the operating systems are different such lawsuits in fairness should not hold any water.
exacly, u spoke my mind. am tired of both them. why didnt apple start suing until after the demise of job. shapes of icon patent, arrangement ofthe icons, weird. why shld a company have monopoly of the LTE-TECH. well apple started this rubbish

Technically, Apple had never created anything. All it did was to couple different inventions of other companies ( Google' android ) into one, though went into agreement with them. Samsung thought it could do the same not believing that such coupling could stand as a patent. But if Apple truly used LTE in iPhone 5 and Samsung could convincely prove it, then mega billion dollar going back to Samy..... Confession: I kind of prefer Samsung.

Did you read the part that said they were not suing for LTE patents? No? Then you are in the wrong place bro lol

Jimbadly: I see Samsung losing this case. The US judicial system is biased against foreign companies.

Dolt. Nokia won Apple decisively in 2009. Apple paid.

Actually iOS came out before Android on consumer devices. Samsung thought they could clone (as usual) stuff from Apple with impunity. They were wrong.
Apple used LTE in their 2012 iPad. What do you mean 'if truly'?! It's on the spec sheets. Samsung doesn't have to 'prove' anything you dolt!

Bros, you try well-well. As a girl friend, she is 'demanding' that you must buy her Apple Iphone.
Now, when she becomes a wife, be ready to buy MTN's aeroplane.
To the topic. I don't see Samsung winning this case against Apple easily but, why all these 'unnecessary' patent suit always? So long long these products uses different OS, I don't see any legal ground for all these lawsuit.
Apple is the 'biggest' culprit here because, they feel that other brand/products should never exist except their own. Apple, the world have since be evolving. Stop all these nonsense now. Anyway, do me I do you. Na the matter be dis one so.

The first camera fone was made by a very small chinese company. Why didn't the chinese company sue other companies for making such fones. Imagine how it would be if the first people to put radio on fones patented it or the first people to make fones av touchscreen (also a chinese firm) patented it. That is what u get from a stupid system that just gives patents anyhow.

Lol what do you expect, Samsung will take all the money they make in US back to their country, while Apple will invest it back to the economy. If samsung wins this then it's a loss to America really.
It doesn't work that way, Dude. Samsung Group is a multi-national korean electronics firm that manufactures its products all over the world, and have one of its main bases in America. So it also invest in American Market.

Samsung is Multi National but Apple is US based agreed but it will always be quoted as the Korean based Company.... Just like MTN Nigeria (South African Telecomms Giant as popularly referred to) and Glo, all the money MTN makes isn't invested in Nigeria hope you know? And the same with glo making money in Benin, cameroon or wherever. Its investement in the US is mainly taxes uncompared to apple's. You can google for how Apple invests in its economy

@texazzpete
Virtual community like this forum, I understand,is a world of anonymity where: insults, rumours, gossips, intellectual emptiness and the likes are brandished as a virtue. I guess I shouldn't say more than that.

According to the body of the article, Samsung did anticipate that Apple will be using its version of LTE- guess you've been schooled on HTC's LTE. See excerpt from article " Samsung anticipates that it will file, in the near future, a motion to amend its infringement contentions to add the iPhone 5 as an accused product..."Based on information currently available, Samsung expects that the iPhone 5 will infringe the asserted..."". I hope this point you to the fact that Samsung still have to prove that the LTE used by Apple belongs to it.

I love knowledgeable people and I also adore modesty, please be modest in all your conducts.
Thanks..

Bro they will be including LTE since iPhone 5 is out and Apple used Samsung version of LTE.
Kindly read again sir... amsung anticipates that it will file, in the near future,

Kindly again see this excerpt from the article you 'copy paste' " Samsung anticipates that it will file, in the near future, a motion to amend its infringement contentions to add the iPhone 5 as an accused product," the company said at the time.
