Haha

First they copied sony-style design. Now they copied technical designs from other phones.

hahaaa, I was lead to believe that Apple pull all theirs designs from the creative minds.

Seem like the only contribution made by Apple to the smartphones was marketing!!!!

Re: Maybe this case will finally cause a change in the patent system

Apple is only fulfilling the last CEO's deathbed wish.

The author had just realised after 20 yrs or so that he is a complete idiot.

Sooner or later all the fanbois will come to this same conclusion.

This is about the level Apple operates at, these are the sort of craps that came out of Apple in the last 10 years.

Re: Steve Jobs - right and wrong

Just because you steal others ideas yesterday and call them your own today doesn't mean you can't sue them when others are making similar products to yours.

This could be very dangerous if a child put these hot stoves to their ears.

I'm glad the Chinese quickly removed them from the public.

LOL ... this is the sort of shit that Apple come up with.

No wonder they haven't any patents of value in the FRAND patent pool.

Re: "underage workers of 16-17 years old"?

18 yrs is still school age in China.

I suspect they are allowed to work but must not exceed a certain amount of hours. Hence why Foxconn try to hide the overtimes.

If only they can make it a bit bigger.

Apple isn't abusing the FRAND patents because they've got shlt all in that pool.

Wang N Staines

So, a lot of companies spent lots of money on R&D which are used in standard tech. and everyone else must pay at FRAND.

MS & Apple can charge what they want for their patents. These example include FATS, icons displayed in rows, rounded corner on tablets, retrieving phone number from text, 3D UI that's displayed behind the screen. hahahaa.

MS & Apple are making their money on the back some really innovative like IBM, Motorola etc... And they are still complain.

This is even more so for Apple. There's nothing coming out of them even worth mentioning.

I think Apple must be credited with this move. I'm willing to pay more for my iDevices if those workers get a decent wage & better working condition.

Good on ye Mr Apple.

Welcome to Elop & MS ways of doing biz.

People went in with cheap & crappy Androids, then find that it wasn't as good as the iOS devices.

Then upgrade to iOS ... Plus, sometime you get really good deals on upgrades.

Wang N Staines

I suspect there will be a product from Apple that offers similar/same functionality coming soon.

They have a track record of banning product they copied.

I had used it once to find a hotel and the reviews were spot on.

The problem is Apple claiming to ethical but shown not to be by the report.

I think Apple is trying to balance Chinese workers' health to that of its shareholders.

Hopefully they will get it right soon.

Great looking phone and as soon it's reduced to 50 quid, I will get one as a 2nd phone.

MS = no blame ... they are only pushing their product.

Nokia = blame ... for hiring that idiot Elop.
