You can now buy devices directly from Samsung.com in most European countries

It isn’t difficult to get access to Samsung’s smartphones and tablets, considering they are stocked by almost every retailer and carrier across the world. However, those wanting to buy it directly from Samsung’s official website in most European markets have been unable to do so till now, but that is changing today. Samsung has given its website a visual overhaul, and at the same time added the option to buy a device directly from the site in most European nations. Basically, instead of listing out all retailers selling a particular device in a region, Samsung is now taking orders directly, though its prices will probably be a tad higher than third-party retailers.


Check out Samsung.com and let us know if you’re getting the option to buy a particular phone or tablet.

Apple drops cross-appeal in first California case against Samsung

The patent spat between Apple and Samsung might have earned the top spot in the history of lawsuits as far as the drama is concerned, but it looks like the two giants are finally losing the will to keep going at each others’ throats. Last month, the two companies decided to drop their appeals against an ITC ruling that would have banned a few existing Samsung devices and given Apple the upper hand in yet another hardware patent, and today the iPhone manufacturer has decided to drop yet another appeal against Samsung, in its first case against the Korean manufacturer in California.


Apple and Samsung are still expected to go to court over the second California case ruling, a hearing for which took place a few weeks ago, with Apple looking at getting a permanent injunction against some of Samsung’s infringing devices. However, it looks like the days of heavy melodrama in the two companies’ lawsuits might soon be coming to an end, and hopefully both will realize how all of this has been nothing but a waste of time and resources.
