15.In fact apple also had a couple of losses during this battle when it came to tablets they filed a public complaint saying that samsung galaxy tab had blatantly copied the design of the ipad but the judge disagreed it massively backfired to the point where Apple was told to run both newspaper and online adverts just to state that actually Samsung hadn't copied the Ipad.

16.That was a big hit to Apple,it's a bit strange that these two companies are suing each other when actually they knew each other Samsung supplies about 90% of the OLed panels used in Iphones which means that without samsung apple would be struggling for displays and without apple samsung would have lost a massive customer for its display department

25.These three stars were then present in every single historic samsung logo up until about 20 years ago they were ditched that underlying space theme has remained the same which looks a lot like the milky way galaxy,the logo is pretty interesting which supposedly has the S and the G on the either end spilling out of the galaxy to show that samsung is always pushing boundaries.
