Who is going to win the war? Samsung or Apple?
The sales of Samsung’s Smartphones increased by 44 % over one year to reach 117 million units at the end of 2011. Samsung (using the Android System developed by Google) sold 27,8 millions, far more than Apple who sold 17,1 millions.
The sales of Apple might have been affected by the expectation of the new I Phone…
Android reached 42 % of market share in US and 22 % in Europe against respectively 17 and 20 % for the system Apple (iOS)
While Samsung announced a profit of 2,2 billion Euros (-23%) Apple presented a historic profits 25,22 billion dollars, approximately 18 billion Euros (+85%). In other word, Apple earns 9 times more money that Samsung this year.
This war started a long time ago. It is a war about the patent that they are using or not.
Since the beginning, each of the brands are trying to forbid the other to sell its products because of the patent that they are using?
Everything began in April when Apple considered that the Galaxy S Smartphone and the tablet Galaxy Tab de Samsung were using the same design and some features of the I Phone and I Pad. Since that, Apple tried to stop the sales of the Samsung products in a lot of countries.
An inverse trend is now observable..
Now, it is Samsung who accuses its competitor of violating some of its patents. To prove this statement Samsung wants to have access to the source of the code of the I Phone 4. This action is being made in Australia.
Let’s see who is now going to win ….!
