Apple Never Designed the iPad - They Undesigned it (by @baekdal) #opinion

Apple has told Samsung that, in order not to infringe on their design, Samsung should create a design with:

  • Front surface that isn't black.
  • Overall shape that isn't rectangular, or doesn't have rounded corners.
  • Display screens that aren't centered on the front face and have substantial lateral borders.
  • Non-horizontal speaker slots.
  • No front bezel at all.
  • Thick frames rather than a thin rim around the front surface.
  • Profiles that aren't thin.

And the two really silly ones:

  • Front surfaces with substantial adornment.
  • Cluttered appearance.

Yes, the Galaxy tab looks very much like the iPad, but they couldn't really design it any other way.

Interesting
