Honestly, and it hurts me to say this as a strong Android supporter; Samsung did copy Apple. Case in point: earlier today I was walking through my local college and I saw a fellow student using a white cellphone. At first glance I thought it was a white iPhone, but as I walked past and thought a little more I did notice some differences. Point is, I wouldn’t have thought that had the student been using, say, an HTC Rezound or One X.

I bought my first Samsung galaxy so “vibrant” because I stopped by a tmobile store & the first thing I noticed was the screen, the screen was like none other that I ever saw… The colors, the screen seemed to be right on the glass as it was a piece of paper pasted under a thing piece of glass & when I took it home I was blown away by the fact that it’s gpu was so powerful & the best for years to come. I didn’t like the I phone but I liked the galaxy so vibrant. So I never noticed that it “looked” like the I phone, I only noticed that it had a big but full 4″ screen & that it was thinking with a 5 mp camera & a 1ghz hummingbird processor wich were the best specs at the time. The shape of the phone meant nothing to me, a common rectangular shape is now patented? HoThFk? Well like I said it was the screen & guts that I liked & when I looked at the phone for the first time & even threw the year I didn’t see I phone in it, I saw a phone pushing the limits… Apple took notes from Samsung if you ask me by buying there chip sets & using the power vr after noticing how Samsung stole there spotlight. They even bought the whole power vr stock so that Samsung wouldn’t be able to provide there customers with the gpu, they monopolized to control the media directly at I phone…. So f*** apple & this one sided review.

Story of my life. thats exactly why i switched from iphone into Samsung (android) because Apple big headed and mind control with their marketing, their evil.

They restrict you from doing anything. They want it to be done their way. The real money maker in Apple inc is the Marketing department!

Samsung made a better choice for consumers and better devices, Apple is a freak.

I said that Samsung is guilty of copying Apple, not that Apple should sue them for it.

M isn’t patented, so is C, or D or etc.. But if you open a restaurant and call it “Mc Donald” , Mc Donald will sue you.
Samsung took the iPhone, dissected it screen by screen and decided how to make their phone look and behave like the iPhone. Google told Samsung in 2010 (or 2011) to stop mimicking the iPhone. That says a lot, even Google noticed that. (Do a search on the document presented in court, you’ll see how Samsung is such a cheap thief
You can go on about how it still has a logo on it, and how it’s got NFC etc… That doesn’t change the fact that Samsung copied ideas (Yes, those rectangles and icons which they couldn’t come up with until Apple did) that Apple has been developing since 2002, and pasted them on their Phones.
I think Samsung should pay more than just a Single billion. Should be at least 5. they are such a disgrace to the Android community. Companies like HTC, and Motorola that try so hard to come up with their HTC Sense and Blur should be given a chance.
Stop copying… Please

By admitting that Samsung did copy, you are basically saying that car manufacturers should be sued because they produced a truck, and that truck looks like another type of truck. Or the Chrysler 300 should be sued because it kinda looks like a Bentley. Absurd.
