Samsung ordered to pay Apple $290m more for US patent infringements
A California jury ruled Thursday that electronics giant Samsung owes rival Apple another $290m for infringing the iPhone and iPad maker’s patents.
The retrial verdict came after judge Lucy Koh vacated over $400m of the original $1bn damages the jury awarded Apple in March, saying the jurors had miscalculated. The new jury sided heavily with Apple, which argued it was owed another $379m. Samsung argued it owed just $52m and that Apple had inflated the worth of its patents.
Barring a successful appeal, the Korean maker of Galaxy smartphones and tablets owes more than $800m in damages, including the award from the original verdict as well.
i think samsung were trying to be like apple so they can have the same type of success, also i believe that samsung wanted to make more profit by making the phone cheaper than the actual iphone. TYhis didnt really affect the audience as much as the company because they will still use the samsung andriod phone weather they are in trouble or not. I think samsung acted stupidly about the situation and should have shown some originality when they were making the new designed phones.
