The iPhone is widely expected to get a major upgrade this fall. Not only is the handset's current form factor more than two years old, but the competition is really heating up with handsets like Samsung's Galaxy S III.
Some of the upcoming smartphone's rumored features include a larger, 4-inch display, a redesigned casing, and LTE compatibility. But what about the processor? According to a new report, it's going to be quad-core...
That didn't take long. Less than 12 hours after Judge Lucy Koh denied Samsung's request to stay the Galaxy Nexus injunction, the handset disappears from Google Play Stores.
Last week, Apple was able to convince Koh that the Nexus was infringing on its patents — enough to warrant a preliminary ban. And it looks like that ban is already in effect...
Just 24 hours after denying Samsung's motion to stay the Galaxy Tab injunction, Judge Lucy Koh has rejected the company's request to lift the ban on the Galaxy Nexus.
As it stands, Samsung will be forced to stop selling both the tablet and handset in the United States, unless the Court of Appeals steps in. But Google has a plan...
U.S. District Court Judge Lucy Koh has rejected Samsung's motion to stay the Galaxy Tab ban this evening. Koh handed down the injunction ruling last week, citing "clear patent infringement."
Apple has already posted a $2.6 million bond to push the ban into effect. So as it stands right now, it looks like Samsung will soon have to stop selling its marquee tablet in the United States...
As if the fact that Samsung - Apple's main supplier of processors, displays and flash memory chips - has been struggling to fend off Apple's legal blows wasn't enough, a new report out today has it that the maker of Galaxy smartphones and tablets is joining forces with Google as both firms seek to pressure Apple into a cross-licensing deal, with Cupertino paying both Samsung and Google to settle ongoing patenting woes.
If anything, Google openly supporting Samsung in the courtroom suggests nervousness on the part of both technology giants, especially as the latter has recently suffered a pair of legal setbacks concerning devices running Androids software, with potentially far-reaching consequences for the thriving Android ecosystem...
South Korea-based Samsung today filed a motion today to appeal a preliminary injunction from the United States District Court Judge Lucy Koh from last Friday, concerning its Galaxy Nexus smartphone.
CNET reports that Samsung wrote in court documents that the order is "inconsistent" with directives regarding share losses...
Apple has just been granted a preliminary injunction on the sales of Samsung's popular Galaxy Nexus handset here in the U.S., based on possible patent infringement. The ruling comes just a week after the company won a similar injunction against Samsung's Galaxy Tab tablet...
Just two days after it won a devastating preliminary injunction on the sale of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet in the United States, based on a ruling that Samsung infringed on the design and patents of Apple's iPad, Cupertino has posted the necessary $2.6 million bond, thus formalizing its blockage of U.S. imports of the infringing tablet...
Apple's legal team sure has been busy this week. First there was the Motorola patent case. Then there was the letter to the ITC regarding an old HTC case. And now this.
Reports are coming in this evening that Apple has just won a devastating preliminary injunction on the sales of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 here in the United States...
I know this is an iOS blog, but today Samsung launched its Galaxy S III in the United States with much fanfare and we thought you'd be interested in some of the television commercials they're running now. They're shiny, 100 percent devoid of Apple bashing and way cooler than Samsung's first promo video for the S III.
You can also bet on Samsung bombarding us with more commercials for the S III in the coming weeks. If these two adverts are an indication ("the next big thing is already here"), I'm expecting some fast jabs at the iPhone (though Terry Gou would disagree).
The question is, will Samsung's latest baby become the first smartphone to outsell the iPhone?
So this is rather interesting: Apparently Foxconn's CEO Terry Gou has been sharing some of his famous words of wisdom lately, advising consumers to wait a bit before making their next smartphone purchase.
Speaking at the company's annual shareholders meeting, Gou told investors to hold off on buying the new Samsung Galaxy S III, claiming that Apple's next smartphone would put the handset to shame...
Thanks to a report by Dutch website All About Phones, translated by The Verge, we now know that Samsung will seek "adequate damages" from Apple following a favorable ruling in the 3G patent lawsuit in The Netherlands. Luckily, the ruling excludes a sales ban option because the infringed patent is classified as FRAND...
