Samsung knocking off iPad's smart cover

[palpatine]

And now Samsung says it is no longer for sale on the Anymode site. Now why would they remove it if nothing had been done wrong, apologists?

bad press? they may have been under the mistaken impression that they could get away with it, and people would be excited to have an ipad-like cover without needing to get the ipad.

removing it doesn't mean a whole lot to me. i am more interested in the fact that samsung is still incapable of building up a clear brand identity. sony fits into this category as well. they seem to be aiming at a top tier buyer who fits the demographic for a lot of apple products, but they can't tie all of their stuff together, and it comes off looking half-baked as well. by the way, their tablets are so weird. anyone plan to get a sony? how about a samsung?

Meh! if the tablet sucks, cover wont make much of a difference

SMDH. Exact same colors, exact same design, even calling it a "smart case." WHY?

Its not.
Take a look this time, it has a back cover that clips on the back side(like Carbon Cover), not magnets like Apples.

But everything else looks so similar, at a glace 100% of people will think it is Apple's.

Apple should copy this and make the smart cover a smart case instead. Would make the iPad much less prone to accidental drops.

Ion Carbon Cover and one other (cant recall name) are on sale

No threat from Apple. This case covers the back as well as the front. No magnets, but instead a sticky strip to hold the cover down just like a case I have for my iPad. The triangular fold of the cover is not original either. Anyone who believes it is a smart cover rip-off hasn't looked past the colors.

Its not about being exactly the same, its about how easy it is to mistake one product for another.

Exxon got rid of its Tiger logo because Tony the Tiger thought kids would think a gas station is a place to eat cereal.

At a glance, the face of the Samsung cover looks exactly the same.

YES, there aren't many good folios and the back of my iPad is looking like ****.
