    Introduction:

    Unlike other electronic companies Samsung origins were not involving electronics but other

    products.

    In 1938 the Samsung's founder Byung-Chull Lee set up a trade export company in Korea,

    selling fish, vegetables, and fruit to China. Within a decade Samusng had flour mills and

    confectionary machines and became a co-operation in 1951. Humble beginnings.

    From 1958 onwards Samsung began to expand into other industries such as financial, media,

    chemicals and ship building throughout the 1970's. In 1969, Samsung Electronics was

    established producing what Samsung is most famous for, Televisions, Mobile Phones

    (throughout 90's), Radio's, Computer components and other electronics devices.

    1987 founder and chairman, Byung-Chull Lee passed away and Kun-Hee Lee took over as

    chairman. In the 1990's Samsung began to expand globally building factories in the US,

    Britain, Germany, Thailand, Mexico, Spain and China until 1997.

    In 1997 nearly all Korean businesses shrunk in size and Samsung was no exception. They

    sold businesses to relieve debt and cut employees down lowering personnel by 50,000. But

    thanks to the electronic industry they managed to curb this and continue to grow.

    The history of Samsung and mobile phones stretches back to over 10 years. In 1993 Samsung

    developed the 'lightest' mobile phone of its era. The SCH-800 and it was available on CDMA

    networks.

    Then they developed smart phones and a phone combined mp3 player towards the end of the

    20th century. To this date Samsung are dedicated to the 3G industry. Making video,camera

    phones at a speed to keep up with consumer demand. Samsung has made steady growth in

    the mobile industry and are currently second but competitor Nokia is ahead with more than

    100% increase in shares.

    According to the founder of Samsung Group, the meaning of the Korean hanja word

    Samsung is "tristar" or "three stars". The word "three" represents something "big, numerous

    and powerful"; the "stars" mean eternity.

    Samsung History:

    1938 to 1970:

    The headquarters ofSamsung Sanghoe in Daegu in the late 1930s

    Samsung diversified into many areas and Lee sought to establish Samsung as an industry

    leader in a wide range of enterprises, moving into businesses such as insurance, securities,

    and retail. Lee placed great importance on industrialization, and focused his economic

    development strategy on a handful of large domestic conglomerates, protecting them from

    competition and assisting them financially.

    In 1948, Cho Hong-jai (the Hyosung groups founder) jointly invested in a new company

    called Samsung Mulsan Gongs or the Samsung Trading Corporation, with the Samsung

    Group founder Lee Byung-chull. The trading firm grew to become the present-day Samsung

    C&T Corporation. But after some years Cho and Lee separated due to differences in

    management between them. He wanted to get up to a 30% group share. After settlement,

    Samsung Group was separated into Samsung Group and Hyosung Group, Hankook Tire, and

    others.

    In the late 1960s, Samsung Group entered into the electronics industry. It formed several

    electronics-related divisions, such as Samsung Electronics Devices Co., Samsung Electro-

    Mechanics Co., Samsung Corning Co., and Samsung Semiconductor & Telecommunications

    Co., and made the facility in Suwon. Its first product was a black-and-white television set.

    1970 to 1990:

    The SPC-1000, introduced in 1982, was Samsung's first personal computer (Korean market

    only) and uses an audio cassette tape to load and save data - the floppy drive was optional

    After the founder's death in 1987, Samsung Group was separated into four business groups -

    Samsung Group, Shinsegae Group, CJ Group and Hansol Group. Shinsegae (discount store,

    department store) was originally part of Samsung Group, separated in the 1990s from the

    Samsung Group along with CJ Group (Food/Chemicals/Entertainment/logistics) and the

    Hansol Group (Paper/Telecom).

    Samsung started to rise as an international corporation in the 1990s. Samsung's construction

    branch was awarded a contract to build one of the two Petronas Towers in Malaysia, Taipei

    101 in Taiwan and the Burj Khalifa in United Arab Emirates. In 1993, Lee Kun-hee sold off

    ten of Samsung Group's subsidiaries, downsized the company, and merged other operations

    to concentrate on three industries: electronics, engineering, and chemicals. In 1996, the

    Samsung Group reacquired the Sungkyunkwan University foundation.

    Compared to other major Korean companies, Samsung survived the 1997 Asian financial

    crisis relatively unharmed. However, Samsung Motor was sold to Renault at a significant

    loss. As of 2010, Renault Samsung is 80.1 percent owned by Renault and 19.9 percent owned

    by Samsung. Additionally, Samsung manufactured a range of aircraft from the 1980s to

    1990s. The company was founded in 1999 as Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), the result of

    merger between then three domestic major aerospace divisions of Samsung Aerospace,

    Daewoo Heavy Industries, and Hyundai Space and Aircraft Company. However, Samsung

    still manufactures aircraft engines and gas turbines.

    The Samsung pavilion at Expo 2012

    Samsung Techwin has been the sole supplier of a combustor module of the Trent 900 engine

    of the Rolls-Royce Airbus A380-The largest passenger airliner in the world- since 2001.

    Samsung Techwin of Korea is a revenue-sharing participant in the Boeing's 787 Dreamliner

    GEnx engine program.

    In 2010, Samsung announced a 10-year growth strategy centred around five businesses. One

    of these businesses was to be focused on biopharmaceuticals, to which the Company has

    committed2.1 trillion.

    In December 2011, Samsung Electronics sold its hard disk drive (HDD) business to Seagate.

    In the first quarter of 2012, Samsung Electronics became the world's largest mobile phone

    maker by unit sales, overtaking Nokia, which had been the market leader since 1998. In the

    August 21st edition of theAustin American-Statesman, Samsung confirmed plans to spend 3

    to 4 billion dollars converting half of its Austin chip manufacturing plant to a more profitable

    chip. The conversion should start in early 2013 with production on line by the end of 2013.

    On August 24, 2012, a U.S jury ruled that Samsung had to pay Apple Incorporated US$1.05billion dollars in damages for violating its patents on smartphone technology. Samsung

    decried the decision saying that the move could harm innovation in the sector. It also

    followed a South Korean ruling that said both companies were guilty of infringing on each

    other's intellectual property. In the first trading after the ruling, Samsung shares on the Kospi

    index fell 7.7%, the largest fall since October 24, 2008, to 1,177,000 Korean won. Apple then

    sought to bar the sales of eight Samsung phones (,Galaxy S 4G, Galaxy S2 AT&T, Galaxy S2

    Skyrocket, Galaxy S2 T-Mobile Galaxy S2 Epic 4G, Galaxy S Showcase, Droid Charge and

    Galaxy Prevail) in the United States.

    On September 4, 2012, Samsung announced it plans to examine all of its Chinese suppliers

    for possible violations of labor policies. The company said it will carry out audits of 250

    Chinese companies that are its exclusive suppliers to see if children under the age of 16 are

    being used in their factories.

    Announced in January 2007 and released the

    following June, the iPhone marked Apple's

    entry into the cellular phone marketplace.

    Described by Steve Jobs as "a wide-screen

    iPod with hand controls... a revolutionary

    mobile phone... [and] a breakthrough Internet

    communications device," the iPhone was the

    first Apple-branded consumer device to run on

    OS X. Based around a touch-based user

    interface with a single button, the iPhone was controlled using a variety of one- and two-

    finger gestured. It included a custom version of Safari that allowed full browsing of any web

    page, a revamped iPod interface with CoverFlow, integrated access to YouTube and Google

    Maps, an iChat-like SMS text-messaging interface (iChat itself was missing from the initial

    release), and a standard set of cellphone apps, such as a calendar, an address book and a

    calculator.

    The iPhone was available exclusively with AT&T voice/data plans, and was limited to

    EDGE-based network access, rather than the faster 3G wireless networking standard. This

    was mitigated somewhat by an integrated 802.11g WiFi chipset, which allowed for faster

    browsing on any available WiFi network.

    Though the iPhone officially only supported web-based applications from third-party

    developers, an underground development effort was quickly organized, and within a few

    months native 3rd party applications were widely available. Warantee-breaking hardware

    modifications to "unlock" the iPhone from the AT&T network were also uncovered. The

    iPhone was sold in two configurations: a 4 GB model sold for $499, and an 8 GB model for

    $599. In September 2007, Apple discontinued the 4 GB model, and dropped the price of the 8

    GB model to $399 (a $100 Apple Store credit was offered to angry early adopters). In

    February 2008, a $499 16 GB model was added. All models were discontinued in June 2008,

    with the release of the iPhone 3G. In the United States and it is first GSM Unlocked iPhone

    which also works on AT&T mobile carrier without doing any complicated unlock process.

    World timeline:

    The international release of the iPhone has been staggered over several months. Today, the

    iPhone is available in most countries.

    Origins:

    On September 7, 2005, Apple and Motorola released the ROKR E1, the first mobile phone to

    use iTunes. Jobs was unhappy with the ROKR, feeling that having to compromise with a

    non-Apple designer (Motorola) prevented Apple from designing the phone they wanted to

    make. In September 2006, Apple discontinued support for the ROKR and released a version

    of iTunes that included references to an as-yet unknown mobile phone that could display

    pictures and video.

    On January 9, 2007 Steve Jobs announced the iPhone at the Macworld convention, receiving

    substantial media attention, and that it would be released later that year. On 29th of June 2007

    the first iPhone was released.

    On June 11, 2007 announced at the Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference that the

    iPhone would support third-party applications using the Safari engine on the device. On June

    29, 2007, Apple released version 7.3 of iTunes to coincide with the release of the iPhone.

    This release contains support for iPhone service activation and syncing.

    According to The Wall Street Journal, the iPhone is manufactured on contract in the

    Shenzhen factory of the Taiwanese company Hon Hai (also known as Foxconn).

    Hello (Advertising):

    The first advertisement for iPhone, titled "Hello," aired during the 79th Academy Awards on

    February 25, 2007 on ABC. The ad features clips from several notable films and television

    shows over the last 70 years, showing iconic characters answering telephones and saying

    "hello" or a similar greeting. The iPhone is shown at the end with the caption "Hello. Coming

    in June."

    The commercial was created by TBWA\Chiat\Day, Apple's ad agency since CEO Steve Jobs'

    return to the company in 1998.

    On June 3, 2007, Apple released four advertisements announcing a June 29, 2007 releasedate. A fifth ad featuring YouTube was released on June 21, 2007. All five advertisements

    feature a voice over describing various iPhone features, demonstrated on-screen. The song

    "Perfect Timing (This Morning)" by Orba Squara plays in the background.

    The first publicly released iPhone 3G ad was first shown at WWDC 2008. Since then, iPhone

    3G ads have been similar to those of the original iPhone; however, the background is white

    and the music used is "You, Me, and the Bourgeoisie" by The Submarines and can be viewed

    on Apple's website.

    One iPhone television advertisement was banned in the UK after the Advertising Standards

    Authority decided that the ad made false claims about the device's ability to access websites,

    and did not mention limitations in doing so.

    In April 2009, iPhone commercials started to showcase applications as part of its "There's an

    app for that" campaign.

    On July 1, 2007, it was reported that Apple paid at least US$1 million to Michael Kovatch for

    the transfer of the iPhone.com domain name. Kovatch registered the domain in 1995. That

    URL now redirects to Apple's iPhone page.

    U.S. release

    People waiting to buy the iPhone upon release in New York City, June 29, 2007

    On June 28, 2007, during an address to Apple employees, Steve Jobs announced that all full-

    time Apple employees and those part-time employees that have been with the company at

    least one year would receive a free iPhone. Employees received their phones in July after the

    initial demand subsided.

    Initially priced at US$ 599 and US$ 499 for the 8 GB and 4 GB models, the iPhone went on

    sale on June 29, 2007. Apple closed its stores at 2:00 PM local time to prepare for the 6:00

    PM iPhone launch, while hundreds of customers lined up at stores nationwide.

    On January 11, 2011, Verizon announced during a media event that it had reached an

    agreement with Apple and would begin selling a CDMA iPhone 4. The Verizon iPhone went

    on sale on February 10, 2011. By contrast, T-Mobile USA's inability to provide the iPhone to

    customers raised its subscription churn rate, put the unit in an "unsustainable position", and

    contributed to parent Deutsche Telekom's decision to sell it to AT&T in March 2011.

    During Apple's official unveiling of the iPhone 4S on October 4, 2011 it was announced that

    Sprint would begin carrying the reconfigured CDMA iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S in the US

    on October 14. Cricket Wireless announced on May 31, 2012, that it would become the first

    prepaid carrier in the US to offer the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, beginning June 22, 2012. A

    week later, Virgin Mobile USA became the second American prepaid carrier to offer the

    iPhone 4 and 4S, announcing plans to release the phones on June 29, 2012.

    Having lost its appeal, Apple is supposed to run a public apology

    in 14-pt. type

    Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Apple iPad

    FORTUNE -- Apple (AAPL) is having a tough time making the case that Samsung's Galaxy

    Tab is an iPad rip off. Courts in The Netherlands and Australia didn't buy it, and even the

    California jury that dinged Samsung $1 billion for copying the iPhone let the Tab off the

    hook.

    But perhaps the most famous ruling in Samsung's favor was the one made in July by a

    London High Court that described the Tab as not "cool" enough to be confused with the iPad.

    Apple appealed the July ruling and on Thursday that appeal was denied.

    Unless it chooses to take the case to the U.K. Supreme Court, Apple must make amends, as

    ordered in July, by posting a public apology -- in 14-pt. Arial -- on its U.K. website and in

    advertisements in theDaily Mail, the Financial Times, T3 Magazine and other publications to

    "correct the damaging impression" that Samsung was a copycat.

    The nine-member jury sided almost entirely with Apple Inc. in its patent dispute case with

    Samsung Electronics Co., awarding Apple nearly $1.05 billion in a sweeping victory over

    claims that the Korean electronics maker copied the designs of its iPhone smartphone and

    iPad tablet.

    The verdict comes after less than three full days of deliberation in a high-stakes trial overseen

    by U.S. District Court Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose federal court.

    injunction based on the jurys verdict, this would ban Apples key competitor from the

    market for months, if not years.

    Apple sued Samsung in April 2011, alleging it had copied the designs of the iPhone and

    iPad. Samsung countersued Apple in June 2011, saying the Cupetino, California-company

    had infringed on Samsung patents around wireless communications and camera phones.

    The jury, made up of seven men and two women, today found no such infringement on

    Apples part and said Samsung was entitled to zero in damages.

    Apple was seeking $2.5 billion in damages, and it called on the jury Aug. 21 to impose a

    heavy penalty on Samsung. They will not change their way of operating if you slap them on

    the wrist, Apple attorney Howard McElhinny said in his closing argument.

    It wasnt a clean sweep for Apple. The jury didnt agree to some of Apples claims around

    the iPad and Samsungs Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet. Still, the overall impression after a read

    through of the 20-page verdict form, which contains 33 multi-part questions, showed the jury

    bought into Apples copying claims, particularly around the iPhone.

    Heres Apples statement on todays verdict:

    We are grateful to the jury for their service and for investing the time to listen to our

    story and we were thrilled to be able to finally tell it. The mountain of evidence

    presented during the trial showed that Samsungs copying went far deeper than even

    we knew. The lawsuits between Apple and Samsung were about much more than

    patents or money. They were about values. At Apple, we value originality and

    innovation and pour our lives into making the best products on earth. We make these

    products to delight our customers, not for our competitors to flagrantly copy. We

    applaud the courtfor finding Samsungs behavior willful and for sending a loud and

    clear message that stealing isnt right.

    This is what Samsung had to say:

    Todays verdict should not be viewed as a win for Apple, but as a loss for the American

    consumer. It will lead to fewer choices, less innovation, and potentially higher prices. It is

    unfortunate that patent law can be manipulated to give one company a monopoly over

    rectangles with rounded corners, or technology that is being improved every day by Samsung

    and other companies. Consumers have the right to choices, and they know what they are

    buying when they purchase Samsung products. This is not the final word in this case or in

    battles being waged in courts and tribunals around the world, some of which have already

    rejected many of Apples claims. Samsung will continue to innovate and offer choices for the

    consumer.

    The damages total was at first $1.051 billion, but that became a tentative number after Judge

    Koh asked the jury to review two inconsistencies in the award, totaling about $2.4 million.

    After deliberating, the jury came back and gave a new total of $1,049, 393,540 or nearly

    $1.05 billion.

    Investors reacted favorably to the news, sending Apples shares up $11.73, or 1.7 percent, in

    extended trading to $674.95. Google, whose Android mobile operating system software

    powers many Samsung devices, fell $5.63, or less than 1 percent, to $673.

    This verdict threatens the future of Googles Android products. Based on this verdict, Apple

    will likely sue other competitors that use the Android system, Mitby said. The result will

    likely be an increase in costs to Android users because of licensing fees to Apple. This will

    drive many Android consumers over to Apple. Next to Samsung, the biggest loser today is

    Google.

    Most of these patent claims dont relate to the core Android operating system, a Google

    spokesperson said. The mobile industry is moving fast and all players includingnewcomers are building upon ideas that have been around for decades. We will continue

    working with our partners to give consumers innovative and affordable products.

    Apple and Samsung will return to Judge Kohs courtroom next month to argue over Apples

    request for an injunction to stop the infringing products from being sold. Mitby said its likely

    Samsung will appeal to the Federal Circuit, the Washington, D.C.-based appeals court that

    hears patent-related appeals. The Federal Circuit has a history of scaling back big damages

    awards, which may spell trouble for Apples $1 billion in past damages, he said. However,

  • 7/31/2019 dansih projcet (2)

    17/17

    on the core issues of infringement and validity, the Federal Circuit is less likely to reverse. So

    even if Samsung is able to reduce the monetary award, the jurys decision spells trouble for

    the future of Samsungs product line which is an even bigger financial issue for Samsung.
