Samsung continues to appeal its patent infringement claim against Apple in the Supreme Court
Following a decision by the Supreme Court, Samsung will be required to pay a $548 million fine after Apple sued them for allegedly copying Apple's iPhone patents . This legal battle dragged on for approximately five years, a considerable amount of time during which Samsung managed to evade the lawsuit. However, Apple ultimately won the patent infringement case, securing the substantial sum needed to cover damages.
Although it is clear that Samsung smartphones closely resemble the appearance of the iPhone, they only represent aesthetic elements, so the fine of that amount of money is an exorbitant amount for the company.
