if samsung produces lcd's for apple this doesn't mean that they are best in world.neither the apple nor the samsung has done anything in development and improvement of any lcd or led displays.Most of this work is done by Sony ,Toshiba,Hitachi, Sharp and for mobile devices by Nokia.for the basic improvements Sony and Hitachi has done a lot of work.Today world's most advanced LED t.v is prototyped by Sony(OLED) which is as thin as a paper and sony always has the fastest bravia engines which no other manufacturer can even come near.Toshiba has build a 3D display which needs no glsses to view 3D and Sharp has the best natural like viewing experience using its QUATRRON Technology which uses 4(+yellow) basic colours to produce a pixel contrary to 3(red,green,blue) in every other type of display. and nokia has manufatured the worlds brightest lcd ever with a brightness of 1000 nits (normal lcd televisons have less than 500 nits) used in nokia 701 along with using nokia clear black technology it's possible to acheive same contrast ratio as that of amoled screen's.one thing more nokia's AMOLED screen's with clear black technology are better than samsung's super AMOLED screens because of additional clear black layer over display which regulates the light intensity acoording to outside lightning conditions so it's possible to view the screen normally even in bright (sunny) conditions.

On a separate note, Apple orders parts for iPad 3, they are the biggest customer, Samsung cannot lose their business to rivals like LG.
Easy. End of story. Lol

Car manufacturers have been standardizing on repairable design & components, so that they can be fixed by local shops. When will Phone manufacturers learn..Every one does not need 'Ferrari' of phones.

I think you've all missed the point which is that Samsung, despite being sued on every continent by the cupertino bully boys, has taken the high road and is continuing to supply one of its biggest competitors with one of the most important parts of its new flagship device. whether its making it from an apple design or not doesn't really matter. I certainly wouldn't make someone the stick they will use to hit me. So respect to Samsung.

Anonymous, 16 Mar 2012I can't believe how much rubbish and biased people there be... moreIm curious... where are these so called "facts" located?
I use an iPhone 4S (not a massive fan but its ok), BB 9800 (not a fan at all prefered my old BB 8900) and a N900 (best phone to date for me because i havent tried the N9)
Either way i have tried Andriod on a HTC sensation and GS2 i thought the build quality on the GS2 was shocking!!! but the HTC was solid.
Apple best build quality! u must be having a giraffe! i dropped my iPhone out of my pocket from getting out of my car and the screen cracked! had to get Orange to replace it under insurance! best guild quality for me would go to HTC or BB ive droped them so many times without a problem!

Apple doesnt design anything but the a5x lable..thats it..samsung has the technology so they manufacture all this and sell them to apple for a huge sum..thats y apple products r so expensive..n lets not ferget samsung is one of the world largest and the best manufacturer of lcds n the only manufacturer of super amoled screens which apple wants to use in their nxt ipad. apple users r just jealous cz their ipads r actually samsung tabs with a different name..so they come up with bullshit like cheap labour n designs n all that..even apple knws that samsung is the best thats y they keep coming back to them..the fact is without samsung there is no apple.

AnonD-5938, 16 Mar 2012Apple invent nothing...they did revolutionize last time wit... moreThats why everyone started their photocopy machines after apple implemented things first :
HTML support instead of flash - 2007 (Adobe realized it in 2011)
USB - First time included in macs manufactured by apple in volume (not prototype or demo)
Multi-Touch tablet/Touch screen devices - Apple Newton 1990s and 2007 iPhone , 2010 iPad.
Flash storage players in volume vs hard disk - iPods.
Artificial intelligence (Siri) - 2011 followed by google new project going on to compete Siri unveals in 2012 or 2013.
Siri existed from 2008 as an app in appstore though.
I just want to say difference between vlingo and Siri.
Vlingo - Commands (both iphone and android)
Siri or Iris - Natural Language synthesizers.
Unibody designing - Macbooks 2008
Ultrabook style - Macbook air 2010 model onwards
flash storage , removal of optical drive etc.
Windows Vista ripped of lot of features from Leopard which are indeed present in windows 7 too.
Windows spotlight search,revamped Calender,Mail,etc
So apple didnt invent anything but they push new trend into the world.
trying to re-create which is already present and popularizing it.
Apple pushes their platforms very successfully and popularize new trends that's all.
