Tech War -Rivalry of Patent between Apple Inc. and Samsung Electronic

The tech war became thoughtful after Apple competitor Samsung Electronic has been introducing new feature in its trendy mobile phones as well as in yet another patent battle. Though, this time around three other companies are possibly involved in this scenario include Google Inc. Apple has indicted Samsung of invading on its key patents, and in response to this Samsung said that feature were part of Google’s android system. Apple has claimed $2 Billion for its damages, this amount is more than then previous amount that is $930 Million and in this case Apple won the case and Samsung lost its previous battle in 2012.

Moreover, Apple has indicted Samsung of violating its five software exclusive rights, which comprises of

* Slide to unlock feature                

* Automated spell correction

* Search option that allows user to find something on phone and internet simultaneously

* Automatic data syncing, and

* A feature that allows user to dial phone number through email, webpage instead of dial pad.

           

Another side, Samsung has argued that feature of slide to unlock was actually licensed by Google Inc. Android OS. Samsung has its high stakes this time because there are around ten Samsung devices that are Record breaking Samsung Galaxy S3, Which are claimed to be scrutinized because of Apple’s patents.

Samsung has also claims that Apple Inc. has violated two of its valued patents about wireless video transmission. One feature is using to organize digital photos and another is integral to Apple’s Face time feature. Samsung stated they have acquired patents from Hitachi and a group of American Investor. They required around $7Million for said patent violation which is insignificant to what Apple is demanding for its patent breach.

On other side, Apple demanding per phone sold around $40 in US for five patents that Samsung has disrupted. Now one thing is that if court rules in Apple’s side then Samsung will have to pay large amount considering that Samsung best-selling phones are rolling in market all over.

The battle between Tech Giants have started in 2011 when Samsung has been sued by Apple for coping its phone design plus features while producing Samsung Galaxy. Apple demanded $2.5 Billion of its patent damages, and Samsung has paid $1.05 Billion after jury asked to pay for its damages. After some time, Samsung products were tried to ban in USA around two times, but that was rejected.

Apple will be awarded nearly $2Billion, considering company wins the case but of course Android phones will have to be modified to a larger scope. But still if the iPad-maker fails it will be around $6Million stake for them.
