Samsung has agreed to settle for USD 548 million a 2011 smartphone patent suit in which Apple claimed USD 2.5 billion in damages, according to a joint statement filed to the US District Court for the Northern District of California.<\/p>\n

Apple won the case in 2012, but was awarded only around USD 1 billion. In making the payment, Samsung is complying with a partial judgement handed down in September in Apple\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n

In an e-mail to the New York Times, Samsung said, \u201cWe are disappointed that the court has agreed to proceed with Apple\u2019s grossly exaggerated claims regardless of whether the patents are valid. While we\u2019ve agreed to pay Apple, we remain buy cialis<\/a> confident that our products do not infringe on Apple\u2019s design patents, and we will continue to take all appropriate measures within the legal system to protect our products and our intellectual property.\u201d<\/p>\n

The company wants to be able to reclaim some or all of the payment if the partial judgement is set aside on appeal to the Supreme Court or it is reversed.<\/p>\n

Apple disputed Samsung\u2019s claim to a right to be reimbursed and reiterated that the ruling \u201creinforces what courts around the world have already found: that Samsung wilfully stole our ideas and copied our products.\u201d Another lawsuit is still outstanding.<\/p>\n
