This is just not fair (Apple Vs Samsung)!!!

[mmmnaked]

What exactly has the S3 improved upon?

Incremental upgrades to the spec sheet, duh :lol:

That's all Samsung CAN do. Google does the part of creating the actual user interface... Samsung just pays to put it on their phones.


There is no Samsung VS Apple. Apple isn't even in the same ballpark... they're playing an entirely different sport. Samsung is the special olympics.

They go after samsung to "set an example" since its the only android manufacturer that outsells them and it seems they dont have a big enough arsenal to go after google as ...well they did take quite a few parts of their software from google's OS so they'd be shooting themselves in the foot!

You cant look at the Samsung devices and tell me they dont bare an almost identical resemblance to the iphone and ipad. A ripoff is a ripoff.

Google makes the OS, and their Nexus phones were sufficiently different to not garner any litigious thought from Apple.

All I see are spec bumps, nothing revolutionary

That's the beauty of the iPhone, just how much they got right. If you start off with a good design, you don't need to redesign it every year. When the iPhone was released, Jobs said it was five years ahead of the competition. Five years later, only now are competing phones able to offer a comparable experience.

Kinda like the lighter in my pocket. Almost identical design since it was released over sixty years ago. Good designs stand the test of time.

Yup just like the mustang, the similar design from decades ago comes back in force.
Doesnt mean that the competitors' cars are useless but for the ones who like this timeless design it works for them

Now with the iphone 5, i have trouble imagining that it'll be so much ahead of its time with what was announced earlier this year. :S
Lets hope they get it right to keep the market competitive

Funny, thats all I see with Iphone 5 as well. More incremental upgrades to keep up with the current market leader Samsung G3^.


Listen Apple fanboys. This company is lost without Jobs. They haven't produced/invented anything since his passing that is worth talking about.............

Oh, unless you count their soon to come new DOA* mini iPad.




Apple and the D.O.A mini iPad... :lmao:






^For the first time since it launched, Apple’s (AAPL) iPhone 4S is not the top-selling smartphone in the United States, according to channel checks performed by Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Walkley.



* Despite what Steve Jobs once said about 7-inch tablets being “dead on arrival,” Amazon’s (AMZN) Kindle Fireand Google’s (GOOG) Nexus 7 have both proven that there is a booming market for smaller tablets and Apple(AAPL) is now expected to take the wraps off its own “iPad mini” table sometime in October.

4S is no longer best-selling!!!!! (a month prior to 5 release) :lol: :lol:

Special olympics, bud

I don't think anyone is arguing otherwise. My question stands, what has the S3, or any Android phone done that has really changed the market? Something that has made the competition stand back and say whoa!

Real revolutionary products such as the original iPhone and iPad are very few and far between. You're not going to get a game changing product every year

What you and your firm do isn't the norm on this continent. Why do you think so many tech companies are opening broom closet corporate offices in troll-friendly jurisdictions? Why is crap that SCO tried to pull not only allowed, but encouraged as a legitimate business practice? Why is m$ extorting Linux and Android patent racket money without disclosing which patents are being violated in the first place? You need to wake up and smell the coffee, buddy.

Thank you for proving my point, that it has nothing to do with the legal profession. Unless you think Lawyers run tech companies now.

dont' let facts stop you from continuing to spew garbage though. Thats something for educated people.

I'm not blaming the legal profession for this. I am blaming corporate management of certain content "producers" for using the legal profession as a club to block other innovators from "their" sandbox. Even if there is no patent infringement, if I have enough of your colleagues on the leash, I can bludgeon any smaller players off the market and even force bigger players into "licensing agreements" obscured with air-tight NDA's. I have yet to hear from you that these practices aren't happening on our continent. Please try to deny it, pretty please, with sugar on top
