Blog 4/11
All,
Write about anything you wish today. There's only a week of blogs left, so catch up because they'll be due on the 20th of April. No exceptions.
Let's talk about Apple again. Ever since the iPhone became a phenomenon, many competitors tried to copy its style and compete against it. Did they sell like hotcakes? Think again, almost every single iPhone competitor fails. Is it because it does not have an Apple logo on it? Perhaps, but the real reason behind it is it's vast smartphone patents. Apple patented so many patents for the iPhone that it is hard for competitors to even try to emulate the style and features of the iPhone.
Just Yesterday, Samsung was being sued by Apple for infringing on their iPhone designs and user interface. While this is interesting, the ironic part is that Apple is the 2nd biggest customer of Samsung. To put that in respective, Apple bought $5.7 billion dollars worth of chips from Samsung last year. With this lawsuit going on, Samsung has a very hard decision to decide on.
