Samsung’s New Phone Designs and Features: A Disappointing Copycat Move in the Telecom Industry!

Samsung’s latest Galaxy Watch Ultra and AirPods have raised eyebrows for their striking resemblance to Apple’s products. It’s quite surprising, considering Samsung had established its own unique design language for wearables in the past, such as the distinctive hardware rotating bezel on previous Galaxy Watches.

The Galaxy Watch Ultra seems to have taken a different route by imitating Apple’s design elements rather than building on its own innovative features, leaving a sour taste in the mouths of many tech enthusiasts. Despite the potential quality of the device, the lack of originality is hard to ignore.

While there are visual differences between the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Ultra 1&2, it’s clear that Samsung drew inspiration from Apple for its latest wearable:

– The squircle case with a raised bezel resembles Apple’s design
– The customizable Quick Button is reminiscent of the Action Button on Apple Watch
– The Marine Band and Trail Band closely mirror Apple’s bands
– Various features like Night Mode and siren volume are similar to those found on Apple devices

Samsung’s decision to imitate competitors like Apple raises questions about its own design direction. Could it be due to declining smartwatch sales or an attempt to attract customers away from Apple? However, with ecosystem compatibility issues between Samsung and Apple devices, it seems unlikely that customers would switch solely based on design similarities.

Perhaps Samsung sees value in adopting elements of Apple’s design language for efficiency reasons. Rectangular smartwatches like the Apple Watch Ultra can accommodate larger batteries compared to circular designs like Samsung’s, potentially offering better performance and battery life.

While both companies have been known to borrow ideas from each other, it would be refreshing to see Samsung focus more on its unique designs rather than mimicking competitors. Let’s hope that future products will showcase Samsung’s creativity and innovation without relying heavily on imitation.
