It seems Samsung cannot come up with own innovative idea...but is quick with coping someone’s.
The only hope for Apple is to do it right

How did Sony Ericsson copy Apple with their LiveView? Plus the pic in the OP is a Samsung watchphone from a few years back.

This thread (once again) reeks of ignorance.
 
this pic looks a lot like the calculator watch I got beat up for having as a kid in grade 3.

:D

LOL! Yeah.... they should really leak some outlandish thing and see if Sammy responds with their own on-going plans. Would be funny especially if Apple would then come out and say it's BS. :)

That'd be kinda dumb. Get the press and buying public all hyped up over Apple's potential next big thing, then "OLOL WE JUST DID IT TO TRICK SAMSUNG CUZ THEY'RE DUMB WE AIN'T GOT NO WATCH STOOPIDZ".

...it'd be a good way to kneecap their stocks, that's for sure.
 
For those wondering how Samsung could have already started working on this:

1 - They hired a team of 100 people. They're not sure what they'll be doing, other than copying Apple and doing it quickly.

2 - They're working on trying to figure out how to invalidate the patents we've seen Apple publish or otherwise just go around them to achieve the same end result.
 
wouldn't it be funny if Apple didn't even make a smart watch, Samsung would be struggling to release anything that looks different from what is already available.
 
Did people forgot about this Kickstarter project?
Pebble.

This precedes both Apple's and Samsung's smartwatches.

Or this guy here from 2010.

Wouldn't it be ironic if Apple suddenly pulls a rabbit out of their hat and introduces something completely "different", something they'd "patent the H E L L out of" and would take the competition 5 years to catch up?
 
Yep. Just like there were smart phones before the iPhone, right? Name anyone who could name one.

Your statement is too generic.

There were lots of smart phones before the iPhone. You can argue there were no full screen touch only smart phones. You might have a case. Might. But saying there were no smart phones before the iPhone is ignorant.

Yeah. And wouldn't it be funny if Samsung actually created a great and usable smart watch and beat Apple to the market since they weren't in that space (yet) and all of these articles that live on the internet about Apple's "iWatch" then made them look like Samsung copycats?
 
a friend of mine had that watch and got busted for cheating in a maths exam with it haha

I had this one, Teacher made me give it to her every test.

to be honest. I couldn't figure out to work the bloody thing, and it never kept time either.
I was sure... COOL, wearing this one around highschool!
 
We’ve been preparing the watch product for so long,” Lee Young Hee

TRANSLATION: We are not copying or following Apple. We had this idea before them damn it!
 
I'm with iGrip here. You're all accusing Samsung of copying an Apple product that doesn't exist yet. It's like some of you here don't have a personal opinion about other companies, rather a Pavlovian response. As soon as you hear something, you all start swawking "copy copy copy" like a bunch of trained parrots.

"What's this? Samsung's making a sleek antigravity driven flying car with crash control? Stupid Shamesung! Always copying. Apple should just buy them OLOL"!

Don't Samsung already make and sell TV's? :rolleyes:

Yeah, and Smart TVs at that.

But Apple innovates. When they make a watch or TV it will be REVOLUTIONARY. Samsung just copies what other people are doing For realz. What's wrong with you. Why won't you assimilate. Resistance if futile!!!
 
The bigger screen game will not work in the smart watch market Samsung, so you can throw that tactic out the window.

My wrist is to small for anything bigger than what current watches are like.
