SG Comics Presents: Apple Vs. Samsung

Apple's patent suit claims Samsung copied the "look and feel" of their user interface, including having a grid of colorful square icons with uniformly rounded corners, a bottom row "Springboard" of square icons, and an overall rectangular product shape that has four uniformly rounded corners. The TouchWiz UI resemblance to Apple's iOS UI is certainly there, but it will still be one tough legal battle with Samsung fighting back that will bring plenty of analysis on its implications for Apple and the smartphone/tablet industry as a whole. But, let's just imagine for fun if Samsung were to lose on the UI design battlefront...

The Apple vs. Samsung legal battle is an interesting one despite the myriad of lawsuits already in full swing amongst all the major manufacturers. Apple is Samsung's number two largest client and fills up 4% of their annual revenue, whereas Samsung is also Apple's major components supplier in semi-conductors, memory, and displays.
