Apple sues Samsung for copying is baseless, and it's pathetic. I thought Apple once stated that all the technology and hardware are built in-house. How come it needs other for supplying technology and hardware. Apple usually saying it leads the way how mobile phone technoly evolve, it seemed Samsung is the first to have dual-core for mobile phone, who is the first and who will be the second to copy now?
If fashion trends are copyrighted, then let see how many fashion designers are suing each other.

          [deleted post]its not something that apple cant manufacture processors,
          they are taking advantage of cost by getting it from Sasmung or from any Chinese companies ..

          I am sure Apple knows what they are doing,
          also seeing the defensive stance of Samsung , they are ready for a peace deal

            Well then Apple needs to sew every other touch screen bar phone, especially ones apps and os's. This includes themselves. None of it is completely original even on their end.... Oh wait, I'm not allowed to say that am I? Oh no I spoke the truth... Blasphemy!

                  Really stupid samsung.

                  Look LG that's called innovation or look at motorola atleast tried to be unique.

                  But samsung OMG. Just cheating people with specs.
                  I have used many samsung products.
                  At first they are like the best one and once after time pass by samsung just ignores.
                  Even service horrible.

                  And also hardware really bad.
                  Atleast. Nokia phones good cameras.

                  Price is heavy and poor services and caring their own products.

                  If a phone runs lag
                  Samsung says it's android fault and google says it's samsung's faulty hardware.
                  And finally a sweet escape is "update ur software".
                  Then a new phone comes there u go buy it and say same again "samsung cool"
                  And same with apple fanboys.

                  Just get a life and
                  Buy a better product whatever u like.

                  Without looking them or using them don't judge because each one has their own usage.

                      Why is this even surprising news! Everyone new from the beginning samsung is the #1 copy cat with zero innovation.

                      They kept copying apple products so badly and yet they failed to deliver a premium feeling or a respected product.

                      Technology wise they are the best, respect side they are the worst!

                            I remember apple suing microsoft for the mac UI . But microsoft counter sued them arguing both of them copied from Xerox. I pity companies like xerox which could not utilize their innovations.

                              Oh, Galaxy Ace is a copy of iPhone4. I am getting good signal on my Ace on any position that i hold it. sure its not a copy of iPhone4.

                              Also as a user I am able to differentiate Galaxy ace from iPhone4.

                              What about nokia, htc, motorola and other smart phones, all are in that iphone brick shape only.... Apple didnt see those phones.

                                    Well it is very clear that Apple afraid from SGS II, and they should because it is much better, regarding the icons thing Apple are silly the same with the design cause there are other phones have the same look of IPhone.

                                    but hey Apple, HTC Sensation will break you for sure and you can not sue it.hahahaha :P

                                    hope Samsung will stop supplying you after this.
