They also fear it could mean fewer smartphone options for consumers. But Samsung won a home court ruling earlier on Friday in the global patent battle against Apple. Judges in Seoul said Samsung didn’t copy the look and feel of the iPhone and ruled that Apple infringed on Samsung’s wireless technology.”
