Despite that, I have a Nothing Phone 1 with LineageOS and I think it's great. The iPhone like design is actually one of the reasons I bought it. Price is also very good for the hardware. What else they're doing is nothing I care about.
Well the shape of actually the best thing about it. Apple really hit on a winner with that design and the corner radius they use. It's very pleasing to the eye. Whereas Android phones tend to have sharper corners, for whatever reason.
Because Apple has design patents on those corners. Samsung lost a lawsuit about it and almost had to pay out a billion dollars.
Wow that is crazy! How can anyone patent a corner? What next? Patent the square?
That judgement should be thrown out along with the judge who made it!
I'd like to see if Apple sue Nothing because I think they literally traced an iPhone on paper and then added gimmick lights. Even the lights look like an apple logo
Did patents actually did 1 good thing?
