For all those who say Shamesung aren't shameless copycats

Samsung's latest ARM powered Chromebook...a shameless ripoff of the Apple Macbook Air

LoL! And so it starts! Soon Apple will be seeking to patent white coloured, clamshell, separated key laptop design.

If i may ask which better thing u don copy!!!!

I can't believe a responsible person post this rubbish!

Apple hasn't voiced any complaints about Samsung copying its Macbook. . .yet
Heck even when Asus released the Zenbook a long time ago, nobody said anything about copying
Now Samsung releases an 11" Google powered Chromebook and this is copying?


Even if Apple starts whining now, do they think we all don't know about the many features they "borrowed" from other companies and marketed as innovation?

The Chromebook is not even white!!! Fanboyism wants reach another level.

On a serious note, you are beginning to sound like a fan boy

Height of JOBLESSNESS and LACK OF PRODUCTIVE TIME gave birth to this thread/topic.

luluosas: I can't believe a responsible person post this rubbish!

One can't be interested in all topics. that's why u have the choice of selecting which post you like. Pls note, it doesn't sound mature insulting ppl in a forum like this.

Who gives a fucck? If samsung likes let them copy Tecno,who cares?

Who cares?

They all copy one another - next story!!

They copied IBM and pushed them out - freaking plagiarists!!

Like Apple never copied anything before.
Abeg make we hear word. How person go con beat you for your papa house? If Apple are really innovative as they claim, they should not be worried.

So everyone should stand still for Apple abi.....very soon you will say Apple invented the laptop....

abeg....let us hear word

secret history

Who invented the world’s very first car?
Who invented the first car? If we're talking about the first modern automobile,
then it's Karl Benz in 1886. But long before him,
there were strange forerunners to the today's cars,
including toys for emperors, steam-powered artillery carriers,
and clanking, creaking British buses.

from this benz should be claiming something from each and
every car manufacturer. my point is, noone has monopoly over technology.
once you have invented something good, others will modify and improve it,
and take it as their own.

@OP.

Which features on Samsung's latest product can you point to as an innovative product of Apple?


Querty Keyboards was first introduced in 1878.

Black keypads have been around as far back as the early 30s.

Asus, Sony, Sager all have laptops built with webcams before the first Macs came alive.

Both notebooks use completely different softwares!!

White isn't a colour invented by Apple...it can't be monopolized, re-invented or patented.

As a matter of fact...semiconductors used in Apple's product were manufactured by Samsung!

How the feck is this "shameless" ripoff?

Price will b 250$

M0r0nic Fanboy! This airhead must be a Redmondpie employee.

Lord_Reed: LoL! And so it starts! Soon Apple will be seeking to patent white coloured, clamshell, separated key laptop design.

nice one, can't stop laughing when i think of this

The guy don keep quiet o!!! Eeyah!Poor fan bwoi

Useless post. Even my Toshiba laptop looks exactly like the Apple thing...
i will only blame the mods that put this on the front page.....

All i have to say is that samsung gives us all a better alternative to unnecessarily expensive apple products.

In the tech world, no company can be an island, you must have to copy stuff from other people and that shouldn't be an issue.

Kudos 2 apple; mehn... If u meet sumtn, access it, lv d bad n copy d good part of it. Evn d lif u liv is copied 4m 2 duos( ur parents).

Gosh!!! I just wasted 2 minutes of my precious time. Come to think of it, What's dis topic doing in front page. Nairaland should be careful...

This thread is just too childish. Is the OP a teenager? I mean, just look at the topic.......FOR ALL THOSE SAYING SAMSUNG AREN'T COPYING APPLE......Childish stuff. This is what Hon Patrick would describe as JOBLESS JOBLESSNESS.

The Samsung BlackJack, or Samsung SGH-i607, is a smartphone available through AT&T in the United States and Telstra in Australia.

Brand controversy

In January 2007 Research In Motion, creators of the BlackBerry handhelds, filed suit in United States federal court claiming the BlackJack trademark was too similar to the BlackBerry mark.They allege Samsung has named their smartphone with a word beginning with "Black" just to mislead the customers that would come to the cellphone stores with the intention to purchase a BlackBerry.

A month later the two parties settled out of court. In January 2008, Rogers Wireless and Fido Solutions released the Blackjack II in Canada under the name Jack.
