Samsung sues after all. - Android General

Samsung is going to sue apple for the Iphone 5 and the ipad 3, for the eight patents that are standard for lte. Way to go Samsung!

Yes, time for the patent troll to get trolled back. Hopefully this patent trolling can come to an end soon. I'd much rather see companies work to innovate instead of trying to sue one another. But seeing that Apple's plan is to sue to competition out of existence instead of innovating, then I support Samsung.

I would love Samsung to destroy Apple...I know it won't happen but it would be nice to see Apple having to shell out for a change!

These patent wars are so dumb

I support Samsung but unfortunately the same thing will happen as always happens in US when apple use someone else's patents, the itc or a judge will rule those patents essential or say apple don't infringe.

No matter what samsung does if they keep going to judge koh they will loose because she's on apple's side apple can violate all Samsung pattents and will say they're standards if Samsung wants a chance to win they will have to change to another jurisdiction.

The iPhone 5 is selling well - it's time for Apple to pay for the patents they're using.

The wonderful Wozniak says he would rather everyone just trade patents and get back to making great products for three people, sadly he does not run apple. And that koh is full blown retard. No understanding of modern technology... Wonder if she uses an iphone....

Honestly if the iphone goes or vice versa it would be bad for the economy with all those iphone lovers and buyers out there. The only reason the economy didnt suffer as much is cause the banned phones were not flagships like the gs3

Actually that would be LG not HTC, which by the way apple is still using a LG touch screen.. So how exactly do they have a patent on it....
Patent... Maybe? Hm imo, apple went to Steve and asked for a billion to ask Samsung, lg, sony, and sharp to use their products yet label them under the Apple name. Quite sad and pathetic waste of lives

Here's a good idea, wonder if it would work. Why don't we all get together and get a patent to prevent innovation. Then we could sue apple, as all they are doing is stifling innovation cuz they are pissed that they are losing market share to the android nation. I could care less about anyone having to pay Microsoft, I've been more partial to them over crapple my whole life. Crapple seems to think that since they are losing market share they can extinguish the Android flame by going after the manufacturers. Ironic that the main ones they are going after are their very parts suppliers. They must not have heard the old phrase, you don't bite the hand that feeds you.

Apple is the considered the top brand in the WORLD. There are literally riots to get hands on an iPhone. They just released the new iPad.... People are literally sitting in their homes with a wad of cash waiting for Apples next product to just throw their hundreds or even thousands of dollars at them.
What I'm trying to say is that Apple has achieved superior brand recognition. If you understand the life cycle of an industry then you will understand that Apple isn't going anywhere for a while. They aren't sweating, they basically created the smartphone, apps, and tablet industries. So please don't tell me they aren't innovative.
The truth is that android will never be as popular as iOS. Maybe someday sales will surpass Apple but there isn't one company that is going to be as powerful as Apple when it comes to phones or tablets.

Wrong. Apple didn't invent any of those markets, they only made them appeam to the masses. The reason apple is so successfully is that there market strategy has always been getting regular people to buy tech that otherwise only people on this forum would use.
Brand loyalty and a lack of innovation will only get u so far. People will sooner or later catch on to the fact that the price premium for specs that are always months behind current competitive flagships of other companies.
I honestly believe that yes, people will continue to use iphones, but now that their is a genuine mature competitor, the markrt will change.
Actually sale of android devices have surpassed apple at times and they innovate nothing anymore they lead on a name alone and people to afraid or stuck in their own ways to try something new I pad 3 bigger resolution and better graphics processing that's your third Gen update cool.... please

I'm glad you like your iPhone, just know that by buying any apple product you are paying "stupid fees" , or "dummy tax" sort of speak. It will work out of the box the way they say, and no other way.
Android gives the user complete control as to what is or isn't on their device.

over the years what has apple actually innovated on? samsung came out with a touchscreen phone before them..it's nott heir fault hipsters won't accept anything that isnt apple
android has had everything ios didnt way before ios..
wallpapers, voice search, freedom for the user(which ios users still don't have) and more... it's because apple is around, we don't have any competition...they're suing everyone that makes a better phone then them, and you're telling me without them theres no competition?
without apple there is less competition in the lawyer space..opposite for the phone space

I am not a fan boy for either side.. In all honesty I like both mobile platforms. But I will be very upset if apple wins this trial.. Even though the galaxy S did look an awful lot like an iphone and the ui in the galaxy S looked like ios at first glance.. I just don't see how you can patent a rectangle or the only practical design . It's not right for apple to say that Samsung copied them when it's obvious that they both inspired each other.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
here's some gather up of stuff i know
1. samsung already had a phone that looks like galaxy s/iphone pre-trial called the F700, the judge deliberately denied it as evidence because it came too late(they submitted it before the trial, how is it too late? if this was a murder investigation, a innocent man will be sentenced to 25years in prison because the evidence that he didn't do it came in too late)
2. we're looking at two rectangles
TWO RECTANGLES...OF COURSE THEY'LL LOOK A LIKE..are you friggen kidding me..
Kinda off topic but...I took my fam to Disneland and I guess I did not notice b4 since its been 4 years since the last time I was there and I didnt knew what a phone ROM was back then....anyways, seriously, about 90% of all the people there had iphones...yes 90%...and thats including all the nationalities u see there. It got me sick knowing the grip that Apple got on the average comsumer that doesn't have the slightest idea what a ROM is. Lets face it...wer just about 3% of the smartphone users out there. Im yet to know someone out there personally that has installed a new custom ROM in their Android device. They think Im just a ****ing nerd genius from another galaxy when I try to explain what I did to mine and my wife's phone. Apple devices have always been well advertised...in commercials, tv shows, and movies...compared to any other smartphone company...way way WAY b4 smartphones for the general population became avialable to the average person. I doubt Samsung (or any other smartphone maker) will ever be able to catch up to Apple. To the average person iphone will always be the one and only smartphone out there because thx to advertisement they have been told that.

I agree that the patent trolling and lawsuit wars helps no one in the end. And I'm sure the iPhone 5 won't get banned. But doing nothing seems like a bad strategy for HTC and Samsung. Seems to make sense to fight back. Otherwise it like just letting someone kick the crap out of you, and doing nothing.
If there was some way to get all parties to just stop with the lawsuits, and just concentrate on making awesome and competitive products, that would be wonderful. But I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon.
As much as I hate apple and what they're doing, these patent wars are getting obnoxious. Can't we just get along? In the end, it's us that feel the backlash!

It was banned for quite a while. I got really lucky that the best buy I went to had one. Although it was kinda fun cause I could rub it in my friends faces cause they couldn't get it yet. Made me feel special
Pretty sure apple also got the galaxy nexus taking off of the google website for a couple days as well.

The One X wasn't so much "banned" as "delayed" by US Customs (at the request of Apple) until it was verified that the phone conformed to the patent ruling on the feature to launch an app when an URL, phone number, etc. was tapped in an email or text.
Why it took a month for Customs to verify this, I have no idea.
That's the word I couldn't think of. Delayed. Sorry

i vaguely recall being able to click on a link/phone number/etc and having it do what i want on my OLD windows mobile phone that was released pre iphone. But hey, I guess if i could sue anyone if i bought them all ipads too.
