Now with the court ruling behind him, he will be in favor Apple the logical step is to ask the court to block the sale of products that have been marked as copying products Apple or infringe its patents. Former corporate attorney Apple Nilay Patel, speculates on the implications of the verdict. Of course, Patel expects that Apple requests a preliminary injunction against the sale and promotion of Samsung products in the United States or miniCalifornia. However, in the long term, he expects the same thing as our editorial team, namely that manufacturers will start making visible changes to both the user interface and the appearance of the products themselves.

In our opinion, other manufacturers will start to take an innovative approach that has been missing so far. Apple in 2007, he basically invented and produced the first multi-touch phone that really took the world by storm. But does it seem normal to you that in five years of development, no manufacturer has been able to come up with anything innovative? After five years of development, if we count the development only since the first one came out iPhone, all manufacturers still use the pinch-to-zoom gesture, as well as the double-tap. The court decision in the US, which is the most important market for most manufacturers, will probably mean a completely new approach for developers and manufacturers when designing operating systems and device appearance.

There is no point in wondering whether a US court has ruled in a dispute between a company that originates in the US, pays some of the highest taxes in the US, and is for most Americans an example of the American dream, where you can get from your garage to the "top of the world," fairly. ProIn order to assess the verdict, we would probably have to know many details that simply did not reach the journalists. We would have to know the exact wording of the laws in the USA and be some of the best lawyers in the world. So as consumers, we probably do not need to be interested in the lawsuit and everyone must form their own opinion on its fairness, but in the case of Czechs and Slovaks, who are used to our courts, this may be a problem.

However, we do not see the lawsuit as a brake on development, but on the contrary as a kick for manufacturers to start developing their own novelties, innovations and technologies. We probably won't see news in the next few days, but as early as next year, manufacturers could start offering innovative products, an innovative look at technology, and bring something that gives customers a real choice. In some cases, the current selection actually looks like the user chooses the manufacturer's logo, the color of the icons and the material from which the product is made.

For example Windows Phone offered an innovative design and, in conjunction with Nokia, proved to customers Applu attracted so much attention that many people wondered whether to switch from iPhone right on Lumia. Samsung Galaxy The S III offered new technologies and customers with iPhonem in their hands went to the stores to touch the new phone. Manufacturers themselves are now realizing that people don't want a different logo, but a different product. The lawsuit in which the decision was made in favor of Applu should therefore ensure that there will be many, many more such S IIIs and Lumias and the customer will really have plenty to choose from.
