Maybe it was designed by lawyers, but looking at the pictures, I actually like the shape and general look of the hardware. The software doesn't look as nice, especially the app menu with garish blue background, but the beauty of Android is that I can make it look however I like.
So it may have been designed by lawyers, but it isn't the worse off for it.
- jonhohle 15y agoI kind of agree. While I wouldn't purchase this particular phone, seeing how they were forced into certain non-Apple design decisions is refreshing.
- SoftwareMaven 15y agoI completely agree. In fact, I like it much more than the previous versions that were trying way too hard to look like an iPhone. If I want to buy an iPhone, I will choose to buy one. Whether Samsung was trying to confuse customers or not (I wasn't there, so I can't say), I think they will be better off forging their own style (even if they are being forced to).
- stordoff 15y agoDeliberate or not, their previous designs were basically carbon copies of the iPhone (My Galaxy Ace currently has an iPhone case on it...). The small changes made here at least make the phone different, and personally I think it looks better for it.
