Note7 owner, 13 Apr 2018No surprise here, these Asian companies except the Japanese... moreJapan doesn't copy? You don't know much about history. Also by that logic, throw all your asian made stuff out and live the WHITE POWER life. Maybe you can buy a phone made by a white... oh wait, there's none.

    "Since it is a leader of the FIDO Alliance for standardized authentication technologies, the case might hit other companies, including LG Electronics, Google, and Amazon."

    That would be a huge cashgrab if indeed they win.

          Note7 owner, 13 Apr 2018No surprise here, these Asian companies except the Japanese... moreYeah, most of them are just infringing patents just like apple, unlike Japan they took technology ang quality of product seriously.

            No surprise here, these Asian companies except the Japanese are well known for ripping off others work.

                    But your "experience" with Samsung flagships is undeniably not representative of the experience most people have. If it would be true, no tech site (and especially not Consumer Reports/Protégez-Vous, independent Government-mandated evaluation sites) would recommend any Samsung phone, and they would sell much less.

                      Anonymous, 13 Apr 2018So you never actually saw or used one. UnderstoodEven a $80 HTC One M7 would have resulted in better experience overall compared to that turd called the Samsung Galaxy On5 or more commonly known as the Galaxy J3. I have that piece of crap and I'm glad I don't have to use that. And you buy those for $20 more than a refurb One M7.

                      You know what else is funny? "I haven't seen one". I clearly stated I have. My friend has an S6 and it stutters to hell and back. Another guy has the S8 and from when it launched and now, the framerates look different (lower). Learn to read.

                        StealSung at his best. Half of the phone are stolen patents from other companies.

                          Hmm another money grubbing company you otherwide would know nothing about. What else is new?
