Apple x Samsung in 60 seconds

A teaching video and quite illustrative account in just a minute trajectory of fights within the world of mobility. In the illustration, the designer shows that Apple has revolutionized the mobile phone market with the launch of the iPhone in 2007 and, as in any segment, it did not take long for other companies to emulate novelty.

In 2011, Apple sued Samsung claiming that the South Korean manufacturer owned 12 products that infringe its patents. The jury agreed with the apple company and the Asian company was forced to pay $ 1 billion to the competitor. But it was not so bad for Samsung, since the products in question represented only 2% of the company's profits.

Even with the fight over patents, the agreement between the companies was of interest to both, since Samsung produces about 26% of the components used in the iPhone. However, the battle also affected Google, since the operating system that runs on devices of South Korea is Android. Smartphones with the search giant's platform represent 60% of the current market, so the competition has become much more difficult for Apple.

At the moment there are still some processes running around the world between the companies and the final chapter of this story, according to the video, are consumers themselves who will decide. Watch the animation below (in English). In Online MBA can see illustrations of stories on various subjects such as Euro, for example.
