Apple on Monday filed its request for an injunction -- or sales ban -- on a portion of Samsung's smartphones nailed in last week's U.S. court verdict.
CNET has put together this short list of devices, and the damages associated with each. Click through to see the phones in question and what Apple was awarded.
Seen here is one of the worst hit: the Galaxy S 4G, which the jury said infringes on five of Apple's patents and two claims of trade dress (the look and feel of the device). Its damages tally is $73.3 million.
From our 2011 review:
The good: The Samsung Galaxy S 4G has 4G connectivity, a front-facing camera for video calls, and a larger battery. Android 2.2 offers impressive data speeds and good call quality. Other highlights include a rich and vibrant Super AMOLED touch screen and a 5-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording.
The bad: No camera flash. The Galaxy S 4G has less internal memory than the Vibrant. There was some slight sluggishness with some tasks.
The bottom line: The Samsung Galaxy S 4G is a fantastic Android smartphone for T-Mobile customers, delivering fast data speeds and other improvements, but Vibrant owners should be fine holding off for now.
