Watch: youtube.com slatev.com Follow twitter.com facebook.com Apple has won a bittersweet victory in its tablet war with Samsung. A German court has ruled an existing sales ban on Samsung's smaller Galaxy Tab 7.7 in the country should be extended to all the 27 member states of the European Union, and that the tablet's design infringes on Apple patents dating back to 2004. The court however ruled that Samsung's larger Galaxy Tab 10.1 has made sufficient design changes from its predecessor, and is no longer an iPad rip-off, deciding an injunction on its sale should be lifted. This news comes a week after a UK judge said consumers would never confuse a Galaxy Tab for an iPad because they were "not as cool." Ouch. Samsung isn't happy, and now has to figure out a strategy to fight back in the court of law and apparently the court of consumer public opinion.

I have an ipad iphone, macbook, imac and recently bought the samsung galaxy s3 due to peer pressure to try out new things, i returned it the next day. no quality at all, thats why these korean cheapstakes steal apples technology and make the product first without giving quality to it. then sheeps like you think samsung is the one who came up with the technology. if it doesn't say APPLE , it doesn't belong in my .......
ReplyDeleteThey should put patent for square object.
ReplyDeleteGoogle wants to make their experience the best and as free as it can... I guess it's a good thing that every app on android can be pirated then.
ReplyDeleteApple needs to get a clue. Google fans are very loyal. Google is trying to make the best experience as free as it can be and people love that. Apple will take you for every penny you're worth.
