    I have iPhone 4 and iPhone 3G and packaging is not the same..not even close. The only resemblance really is in bubbly icons that look worse on Galaxy but are far from same.. Galaxy S2 is much bigger screen , it's thinner and lighter and has removable batteries and so on and on. Yes, they obviously went with the whole glossy icon thing but that's hardly copy-cat..

    The only thing this is an issue is because Samsung Galaxy S2 is a very high polished quality phone. It has similar shape as iPhone but that's hardly copying anything. Laptops and other phones all have similar shapes and form factors. It's beyond stupid to claim the phone is going to be confused with iPhone.. No freakin' way.

    The screenshots and the basis of the lawsuit are hilarious because they try to montage the specific part of the Android with those icons to look like they are the same as iPhone.. well here's common sense for ya. Apple didn't invent swiping left and right or up and down with a ton of icons on the screen.

    Eventually this whole case will be dismissed because it's a joke.

    • the interface is identical. can't you see that? you hate apple so much that it blinds you on binteliboy
    • not at all. I think Apple fanboys are all up in arms because they can't face the fact that Android phones are outmatching the quality and polish of Apple products. Galaxy S2 is Android through and through with the only difference when you go into apps the icons don't scroll up and down but left and right.. Icons are glossy, obviously influenced by Apple but have absolutely no visual similarity..they are QUITE different both in colors and appearance.Boz
    • the quality and polish of Apple products and Apple is now suing because they are in deep doo doo.
