Here’s why Apple is seeking $2.2Bln claim from Samsung

Apple has accounted a claim of 2.2 billion dollars against Samsung Electronics, demanding money for the lost sales and royalties the company faced.

Apple stated that the patent infringement by Samsung has caused a significant loss to the company.

The trial began last week, involving 5 Apple patents and 10 Samsung products.

The patents are ‘slide to lock’, ‘universal search’, data syncing in background, autocorrect, and contextual links that attach a menu to items such as phone numbers, email addresses and postal addresses, PC World reports.

Chris Vellturo, president of Quantitative Economic Solutions said that Apple is known for its user-friendly features, that Samsung copied.

This is the second case of patent infringement between the two mobile giants; in the previous case two juries have ordered Samsung to pay Apple a total of 929 million dollar for different patent infringements.(ANI)
