It was about time until a company stood by their designs... Chinese, Korean, even Japanese companies are usually eager about copying designs...
You just have to look at many korean and japanese cars that look like BMWs or Mercedes...
It's just that no other company had the "time and patience" to actually defend their designs...
Since Samsung has been copying stuff from other competitors for years, they think they can get away with it but not this time...
And the worst thing for them, they will loose a lot of business from Apple and get a very bad reputation when things settle down...
