Galaxy Note 4 may be banned from US sales
along with other Samsung phones
Samsung is definitely not having its best couple of
quarters when it comes to its economics, but we
wish this was the only drama the Korean giant faces
right now. We’ve seen the continuous patent
lawsuits that the company has lost against Apple,
and we also know this is not the only lawsuit
Samsung faces. NVIDIA is another company that’s
currently battling Samsung over patents, and some
recent developments might complicate things even
more.
NVIDIA has recently announced that the ITC (US
International Trade Commission) has voted to
investigate whether certain of Samsung’s recent
devices infringe with a patent lawsuit between both
companies. The lawsuit claims that Samsung’s
Exynos processor, along with the Qualcomm
Snapdragon S4, 400, 600, 800, 801 and 805 are in
violation of certain GPU patents that NVIDIA has. As
a result, NVIDIA is asking for a sales ban on devices
like the Galaxy Note Edge, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy S5,
Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S4, Galaxy Tab S, Galaxy Note
Pro and Galaxy Tab 2.
At this point the investigations have only begun, so
it could be a matter of time for this to happen.
Whatever the case may be, it’s a good reason to not
hold out on buying any of the Samsung devices
mentioned at launch day .
