Analysts who predicted that Samsung would get slaughtered by Apple in the biggest patent trial of the century so far, pat yourselves on the back. The jury’s verdict against Samsung on Friday was absolutely devastating in all respects as the jury found that Samsung violated multiple Apple patents with many of its big-name products. Click below for the full details.
The bottom line: Obviously, this is really bad news for Samsung. The jury ordered the company to pay Apple nearly $1.05 billion in damages for patent violations. What’s more, the jury found that Samsung willfully infringed upon five of the six patents asserted against it. Unless Samsung decides to radically redesign its phones, it’s hard to see how the company can continue selling smartphones without continued legal and financial hardships. It also sets a huge precedent in the wireless industry with competitors now realizing that they’re going to have to go back to the drawing board instead of copying Apple.
