AnonD-114814, 22 Apr 2014Samsung steals from LG many patents, as for example the patents related to OLED technologyI exactly don't know that Samsung stole OLED technology from LG. Anyways, Samsung is not in the OLED market anymore. Samsung have stooped manufacturing OLED displays due to poor market share. LG is the dominant supplier in the OLED market.

But I know some features that Samsung exactly copied from its rivals.

Smart Pause = LG Optimus G Pro
S Wallet = Apple Passbook
S Voice = Apple Siri
Magazine = HTC Blinkfeed

        if they come out with a smaller screen with same specs(but no need for full HD), it would be even better than the sony z1 compact since the z1 has non-user removable battery

          Anyway I just bought it last Saturday and still observing.
          And I'm not using it for gaming, instead I use my Note 3 for games. Better go for Note 3 Snapdragon for smooth gaming experience.

                        In Pakistan its exynos with warranty sets, we are too penalized with India. Its sheer cunningness on part of Sammy, OK we don't have 4 G but its still has ur bands ad works, only to save money thinking us nitwits, will by a 780$ set with low spec. We are a Billion people let's join hands n boycott Sammy products, fr this discriminate treatment. Today Note 4 rounded edge announced design registered, maybe we get old Note3 upgrade sets.
