There is no love lost between Samsung and Apple anymore. The latter continues to hound the former over its creation of tablets and phones that supposedly copy its designs, while Samsung is doing all it can to give as good as it gets.

Samsung has yet another reason to be disappointed with its performance in its protracted lawsuit spree against Apple. The company has been trying to persuade the UK court of law that Apple had been unlawfully using technology based on a standards-essential 3G data patent that belongs to it.

Last year, ASUS was ordered to pay Apple a massive patent infringement damage sum of $1.05 billion, which roughly equates to 810 million Euro.

Judge Lucy Koh, the one overseeing the patent war in the San Ho... |

Patent blog FOSS Patents has been one of the premier sources of updates on the Apple-Samsung situation.
The latest such update has to do with Samsung and its legal team, so to speak.

Samsung and Apple continue to attack each other, quite openly, in the court of law, or rather courts of law, since they are several.
Though the litigation in the US is the most infamous right now, the two companies have been battling in other countries as well.
Each wants the other to be forbidden from marketing ... |

Samsung and Apple continue to fight over the right to sell their products around the world, and the highest-profile lawsuit has just moved a step forward.
Then again, one might say the case hasn't so much moved forward as modified in a way that will allow it to do so.
Judge Lucy Koh, with the court in San Jo... |

The ongoing patent war between Apple and Samsung has just got a bit more steam, even though most of the world hopes the two will do what Samsung and LG did and settle matters outside of court.

It was only a matter of time before the next episode of the patent war between Apple and Samsung aired. Compared to others, though, this one's plot, if it can even be called that, was surprisingly ambivalent.
Samsung has been trying to get Judge Lucy Koh to approve of a retrial of the patent infringement case ... |

The patent war between Apple and Samsung has become so akin to a television drama that spectators cannot help but become involved.
The latest bystander to meddle in this matter is one that actually has business being there: the International Trade Commission.
From what we can gather, not all the decisions taken dur... |

If one ever needed to claim there was proof that the highly questioned US verdict against Samsung was fishy, the Dutch have provided it.
Back in December 2012, Samsung mostly scrapped its efforts to fight Apple's patent claims in Europe, to “protect consumer choice.”
The Dutch court still went fo... |

As if it weren't enough that Apple lost the bounce-back patent in October, the company has lost its second patent, putting yet more pressure on the so-called reparations that Samsung has to pay after the disastrous first ruling in San Jose, California.
For those not up to date on the issue, Apple and Samsung h... |

We've only just reported on the latest development involving Samsung and Apple in the United States, and how the former won a small victory.
Due to that, we did not actually expect something so hauntingly opposite in nature to happen in Europe.
It did though. Samsung has decided to drop all its patent infringe... |

Even though Christmas is just a week way, Samsung and Apple are pushing forward with all they can in their attempts to gain or maintain the upper hand in their patent war.

There is nothing enviable about Judge Lucy Koh's job at the moment, given that she has to oversee a global spat between two massive IT companies. The second phase of the Apple-Samsung patent war has started, meaning that Apple will be trying to enforce its win and Samsung will try to reverse it. Samsung went s... |

After the crushing defeat suffered during the first round of the patent war against Apple, Samsung gathered all the resources and legal acumen it had and moved to have the whole trial reset, on the grounds of jury misconduct.

Having heard that Apple was switching chip orders from Samsung to TSMC, we weren't all that shocked to hear that another tie between Samsung and Apple had broken.
It turns out that said tie isn't actually breaking though. Samsung won't, in fact, stop shipping LCDs to Apple.
"Samsung Display has nev... |

If you thought Apple dumping Samsung for chips from TSMC was rough, Samsung is ready with the comeback.
Samsung Display, Samsung's subsidiary, has decided to reduce the number of flat-screen LCDs shipped to Apple. The company will cease delivery altogether in 2013.
This information comes courtesy of Korea Ti... |

The overwhelming defeat that Samsung suffered in San Jose, California, in its patent war with Apple, has caused many reactions, and the backlash from Samsung's supporters hit not only Apple and its fans, but the case's jury, more specifically the foreman.
On October 2, Samsung filed paperwork in which it ... |

It was so long ago that a British court ruled that Apple would have to publicly apologize to Samsung that we didn't think it would actually happen.
Since Apple still had a grace period to prepare a counter of some sort, it got out of having to do it right away.
This decision stands in sharp contrast to the r... |

Changing component suppliers might not sound like a big deal to consumers' ears, and it is true that it usually isn't, but this particular occasion is more important than it seems, in light of the events that took place over the past year. Few are the tech news followers that do not know of the patent war... |

Samsung has scored a small victory in its continued patent war with Apple: the preliminary injunction against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 has been lifted in the US.
The injunction was issued by a different court than the one in San Jose, California, which has been overseeing the proceedings of the trial under a jury.

Considering that the quest to completely reset the Apple patent war can very well end in failure, Samsung is drawing up all possible contingencies.
The Korea Times has the latest update on the matter. In order to counterattack with the greatest possible force, the corporation intends to meet with Google Executive C... |

For a jury's verdict after a trial to be rendered invalid doesn't usually happen, but it isn't actually unheard of either, which no doubt had a bearing on Samsung's latest move.
The short version of the story is that Samsung has chosen to try and have the jury's decision canceled in its pat... |

Even as Samsung is preparing to begin a new legal battle with Apple, the latter is moving for an increase of the money that the former is supposed to pay it, following the verdict given by the jury in the San Hose, California district court.

Samsung may have lost the big round in the lawsuit started by Apple against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and several smartphones, but it is eager to turn the tables, or change the tables altogether as the case may be.
Though still recovering from not having been granted a lift on the ban against Galaxy Tab 10.1, Samsung has... |

The past three weeks have been mercifully free of further developments in the drama that is known as the Apple-Samsung patent war. Or at least there weren't any events major enough to warrant coverage more than the IFA 2012 and IDF.
Now, though, the judge overseeing the proceedings in the San Jose, California ... |

As if it weren't bad enough that Samsung was banned from selling Galaxy Tab 10.1, S II and Nexus products in its home market, the company is now being investigated by the Korean Fair Trade Commission. The report says that Apple filed a complaint around the way Samsung licensed its 3G patents. Apple says Sams... |

When he agreed to answer the question of Gizmodo's reader base, Velvin Hogan, the foreman of the jury responsible for Samsung's embarrassing defeat in the patent war with Apple, probably didn't expect so much heat and frustration to be directed his way.
As seen in this lengthy string of questio... |

It says something when a company that used to be its country's pride and joy manages to create so many mixed feelings that the home public opinion is, at best, ambivalent.
Unfortunately, this feat is precisely what Samsung has managed in South Korea, and we aren't talking about its products getting banned... |

 |
It turns out that December 6, 2012 is not early enough for Apple, who wants to permanently ban eight devices that Samsung has been found to have built with technology that infringes Apple's intellectual property.
By now, everyone interested in the fiery relationship between Apple and Samsung will know that the... |

Samsung's defeat in San Jose, California, was as embarrassing as it was massive, but there is one very thin silver lining: the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was found to not overstep the legal bounds that got it tossed out of the country.
That's as bizarre as it gets, considering that the product is what started this p... |

Samsung really suffered a heavy blow a few days ago, when the jury overseeing the case between it and Apple in San Jose, California, ruled almost totally in Apple's favor. Samsung is, naturally, going to appeal the decision of the US court, but it won't stay silent during the time it takes to formulate th... |

 |
Even though judge Lucy Koh said both companies were at risk, and even though neither side was found to have treated the lawsuit truly properly, the jury's decision has turned out to be completely one-sided. With both Apple and Samsung claiming that the other infringed certain patents, and with so many witnesse... |

 |
The lawsuit in San Jose, California is waiting on the Jury to give its verdict, but other countries have already reached a decision.

In a sense, the patent war between Samsung and Apple has finally ended, since now the situation is no longer in their hands. Granted, lawsuits are still happening in countries besides the US, but they all seem to be waiting for the verdict in San Jose, California. Both sides have exhausted the time allotted to ma... |

San Jose, California district judge Lucy Koh probably expected this when she asked the leadership of Apple and Samsung to try and figure something out, but even her secondary goal failed to be achieved.
When the testimony phase of the Apple-Samsung patent war came to a close last week, judge Lucy Koh asked the comp... |

 |
With the way things stood at the end of the week, Samsung was going to be painted as untrustworthy in the eyes of the jury, but a ruling by San Jose, California Judge Lucy Koh eliminated this disadvantage.
Previously, a lower magistrate had found that Samsung had erased important e-mails that would have made a diffe... |

Whether or not Apple's lawyer was really smoking crack the other day, the lawsuit between Apple and Samsung in San Jose, California, has finally reached a close.

“We are done,” J... |

The trial between Apple and Samsung, taking place in San Jose, California, has just exited the stage where witnesses come and testify.

Samsung may have angered the Judge overseeing the patent trial between it and Apple, in San Jose, California, but Apple hasn't been making that much better of an impression.

As the legal counsels of Apple and Samsung continue their court theatrics in San Jose, California, the latter company has managed to get a few devices off the list.

Another episode has elapsed in the legal drama that is the Apple vs. Samsung patent war, and Samsung has taken the reins for once, providing a good argument for why Apple's patent infringement claims have no grounds.
One of the patents that Apple accused Samsung of having infringed is the one that describes th... |

In a move that may very well be a great blow to Samsung's case in the patent trial taking place in San Jose, California, Hyong Shin Park has not been allowed as a witness.

Samsung and Apple have been fighting over patents, and the devices that use them, for months, but now they have been revealed to also be fighting over the manner in which they are to fight over those things.

Like every day for the past couple of weeks, we have something new to report on the Apple-Samsung patent spat going on in San Jose, California.

 |
Apple and Samsung have managed to weather a few days of courtroom meetings without angering the judge or “polluting” the jury again, so we can pay attention to some of the actual evidence for once, instead of the drama.
The trial in San Jose, California, overseen by Judge Lucy Koh, is taking place under... |

Samsung and Apple are fighting each other over the right to make tablets, the right to use certain patents and alleged copyright infringement in several parts of the world, but South Korea has decided to take a break.
