Samsung vs Apple

Well we knew that after the way that big Apple v Samsung lawsuit ended a few weeks ago that Samsung was going for revenge soon. Samsung even came out and said that if the next iPhone has LTE, they would be suing Apple. Well today Apple announced it’s iPhone 5 with LTE. Samsung is not alone, HTC has joined them in the litigation.

The new iPhone 5 is using LTE which will give those sheep the blazing speeds that all us Android users are used to. But a number of the patents involved in LTE are owned by Samsung and HTC. Here’s what an insider had to say:

“Samsung Electronics has decided to take immediate legal action against the Cupertino-based Apple. Countries in Europe and even the United States ― Apple’s home-turf ― are our primary targets.”

So far no legal action has been started. But we should hear more in the next few days. So what do you guys think? Is  revenge on it’s way for Samsung?

    I love it. I’d love to see apple get b**** slapped with a big lawsuit right back in their face since they started all this bs in the first place. Then after they get worked over maybe they will stop all the lawsuits and everyone can get back to focusing solely on bringing us new advanced technology instead of wasting money, time and resources in the courtroom

      I’m actually tired of having to write about all this legal crap. I rather write about the new apps, updates, and Key Lime Pie instead of all these patents and lawsuits.

    I think anybody that has any patents related to LTE technology should get on the bus and give Apple the biggest run for their money they have ever seen.
