Of course it backfired. You didn't bother to do any actual research and instead just started trolling due to your love for all things Samsung. It's pathetic and makes you look like a fool. Just because Samsung has an 'idea' and talks about it the loudest does NOT mean they had the idea first, have a patent or even came up with the idea on their own.

I agree with you but maybe we should, ya know, tone it down a bit. So the thread doesn't get closed.

In retrospect I could have toned it down, but after attempting to talk to smooth4lyfe I have realized he is a bitter troll and I'm glad I didn't because he deserved everything I said. A simple google search on his part would have rendered this entire discussion moot. I'm not a fan of trolling or fanboys and he is well known for being both.

Lol I obviously pulled a nerve with this one

A simple response like everyone else could have led to a discussion about this, but u caught feelings
Its ok though, its whatever

I see what you mean. We all get worked up and upset sometimes often every once in a while.

This video not withstanding, I did not view it. They all "borrow" from each other, but if you do not think that many of the things LG has is a blatant and not so subtle copy of Samsung you have not been paying attention. I remember when the LG Nitro came out and I went to check it out because it was one of the first LTE phones on ATT (I got the Skyrocket) and I could have swore I was using touchwiz. I mean it was not even subtle. If you were familiar with touchwiz, you would have known 100% how to use the LG. Do not even get me started on the optimus g pro and the Note 2...and the Note 2 was out well before the optimus g pro.

Not trolling, just my opinion with some fact thrown in...

I have to agree with that. In other cases, the Optimus G Pro looks just like the Note 2, and LG put out ads for the Optimus G that looked very similar to Galaxy S4 ads.

No. LG put out ads MOCKING the S4 ads.

Not so much a nerve as people getting tired of empty headed, zero-substance fanboy threads.

Your right about this one. I bought a LG Viper for my girl cuz her Evo Desing broke and she wanted something else, no more HTC for her. So I got her the phone and when it arrived it came with ICS, but I was expecting it with vanilla GB. To my surprise its a rip off Sammys Touchwiz. Pretty much everything is the same with a few minor differences of course.

Ever since the iPhone arrived patents have simply moved to becoming a bigger club and business model for the mobile device companies to use against each other. A judge in FL has even said so regarding the current Samsung vs Apple patent dispute. Its time the USPTO steps in or gets overhauled in a meaningful way by the Congress and I don't me by siding with Apple since they are a US company but by actually making real and meaningful reform the to patent system in the US.

Technology innovates so quickly and changes happen so fast that its becoming impossible for smaller companies to get off the ground or larger companies to actually do business with Patent Trolls lurking around every corner.

Apple doesn't innovate, they litigate and make changes to existing technology and call it theirs or as they did with SIRI buy the software, MAKE it WORSE and then call it innovative.

Im sorry but its ridiculous when companies try and sue other manufacturers only because they use a similar feature. Give it a few years and all smartphones will have at least a feature they all share. Its stupid.

You may as well say im going to sue you because you have the same screen size and same pixel density as the phone we have. I hate it when companies do this

The thing is if its their idea and its patented then the other company has to pay to use the idea. If it was me i would want them paying me a fee for an idea i created patented.

How would you feel if you invented and patented said feature, and a company started using it without asking?

Yes but the patent that LG use may not be what samsung use if yku knkw what I mean, samsung use a feature that does that and so do LG, Samsung was most probably unaware that LG had a patent for it

Agreed. I have noticed that smooth4lyfe only agrees with those who like all things Samsung. He tries very hard to not look like a Samsung fanboy but that's all he is. His ignorance and inability to see Samsung's failures is pathetic. At the end of the day Android is Android and the OEMs all want one thing: our money. Sticking blindly to a company out of 'loyalty' is the stupidest thing one can do. I came to Android for choice and to try different approaches from different companies. If I wanted to stick with one phone and one os I would still be with Apple.

Wow...Just because I like the Galaxy S4 doesnt mean I am strictly Samsung...do you stalk my posts? Are u forum FBI?
I have had iPhone to Windows Phone to Android from different companies, so what u notice is u stalking me on this forum
I have noted my dislikes on the GS4 so maybe u should pay attention to those and not focus on what I say good about it.

People like u are so funny...makes my day
U can continue to stalk me though, I could care less
The GS4 is the best phone currently out now, and thats MY opinion and if you hate it, then find something else to do then be on a computer lol

Stalk you? Don't flatter yourself. The only reason I recognized your name was because many others have complained about your trolling and fanboyism, not something to be proud of by the way. I am only here because I happen to like LG and the upcoming Optimus G Pro and felt the need to state that you are wrong and spreading misinformation. As I stated before a simple Google search on YOUR part would have prevented making yourself look like an ***. But hey, ignorance is bliss to those who believe it.

Yeah Ok... u don't have to mention my name in your posts calling me a fan boy, just focus on the thread topic and less about ur emotions about other people's post... If it's something u don't like correct it, don't bash people.. If u like the Optimus G then talk about it as the others have done, my name didn't have to be in your post... It's called discussion... People talk bad about the GS4 but u don't see me calling them out.. U people need to relax

Galaxy s4 better because:
Better processor (higher clock on S600 and Octa is better)
Many more features
Packs DDR3 Ram
Gorilla glass 3
Comes with latest 4.2.2 jelly bean
Higher PPI (probably wont notice tho)
Amoled is better (imo)

Thats why I think its better

See, now I can respect this. AndroidS3 gave actual FACTS as to why he thinks the S4 is better. I do agree with a few of his points, others are up to how the user feels. Using ignorance and misinformation to cry about how one company is 'cheating' is NOT the way to go about it. AndroidS3, despite the higher clock in the S4 and DDR3 ram the performance gap between the One and S4 isn't as substantial as the raw numbers suggest. Any idea why this is? I feel it's because Samsung has loaded down the Galaxy with unnecessary features that tie up too much ram and bog down the processor. (I know the OP was trolling the Optimus G Pro, but my question is about the One. I didn't expect the Optimus G Pro to beat the S4 since the Pro has been out for months.)
