Proof of Apple copying Nokia

[anshul_aggarwal]

Is it just me or the Apple iPhone 5C looks suspiciously like a Lumia 620? See yourself

What do you think? From Apple India site, iPhone 5C yellow with official green case.

IT'S AN "APPLE LUMIA 620"!!! hahahahah, Apple is losing their way!!! :wink:

As Nokia put it out ..

Imitation is the best form of flattery .

Loved the line

It isn't a copy per se, the L620 looks a lot better. Nice try Apple, FAIL!

This is nothing new.

It looks almost the same and is about 250 dollars more expensive, yet it will sell about 150 times more units then the 620. I just don't get it.

Did anybody notice how they copied Windows Store??

Don't get it? I'll help you. There are rags like The Verge and Engadget who praise every turd that comes out of Cupertino's a$$ while trashing anything out of Redmond. Then you have hacks like Ed Baig on USA Today practically ejaculating at the mere mention of Apple while demonizing Windows. The only reviewer I've seen to consistently praise Windows Phone is Eric Zeman from Phone Scoop. We need an an independent person of high stature in the public eye to do for Windows Phone what Dr. Sanjay Gupta did for the medicinal marijuana crusaders. That's the kind of clout we need.

Not the first time this has happened. Remember this? (Lumia 800 vs iPod nano)

 

[Doohickie]

I think the products shown are so generic that's hard to say anyone is copying anyone else; they are just using pleasing proportions which goes all the way back to ancient Greece.

"This new result of brilliant engineering..."

Nobody sane does.

I think the Nano came first.

I think people mock apple because they clearly copy other peoples designs, then sue anyone else who copies them for patent infringement.

No, they mock Apple because of the condescending attitude they have toward consumers.

Microsoft should copy Apple. Like working notifications and browser.

 

[tgp]

Apple, like any other business including Microsoft, has a goal of making a profit. Nobody does it better than Apple. They don't force anybody to do anything. Their products give a complete, and mostly pleasant, user experience. What's wrong with that? If they're doing something illegal the powers that be will be on them (OK, I realize this brings up a whole can of worms!). Maybe this is what should take place:

Microsoft should copy Apple. Like working notifications and browser.

I think the Nano came first.

Nope. That Nano came out September last year, even after the L920.

The previous generations of the Nano looked nothing like that, if you're wondering.

Oh really? Looked nothing like that? Go do a Google search of the 6th generation (released 2010) iPod Nano. The 7th gen is literally two 6th gen put on top of each other.


You have to be blind to not notice this.
