Three weeks after Samsung agreed to pay Apple $ 548 176 477 for the infringement of patents , the American company requested the court to recover from a South Korean manufacturer another $ 178,659,870 as additional damages and interest in the amount of $ 1 192 490.
It is reported that Apple is seeking additional damages due to the fact that its patents have been violated in five more models of mobile devices Samsung, including quite old smartphone Samsung Galaxy S II. If the court is satisfied the requirements of the American giant, Samsung will have to pay him a total of about $ 750 million.
Despite the protracted patent war, Samsung and Apple is still associated partnerships, and the South Korean giant company from Cupertino delivers a huge amount of components for its devices, including A9 processors for the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. However, an order for the production of chips A10 for the next generation iPhone entirely got TSMC and Apple shift to other alternative suppliers in order to reduce to a minimum dependence from Samsung.
