Who is Samsung Galaxy s3 target market?

Answer 1

Samsung Mobile shifted the market focus to the ideal consumer that most mobile companies desire, the young generation. This audience is growing and tends to stay with one or two brands as they age.

Answer 2

The wait is finally over for people in the U.S. who were looking forward to Samsung's latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3. Sprint made the handset available for in-store purchases from July 1, while AT&T announced that it would be selling the phone in its stores from July 6. But if a recent note by one industry analyst is to be believed, it won't be an easy road for this successor of the S2.

According to AppleInsider, the iPhone-maker's most recent courtroom triumphs depend largely on four patents, "though its recent success with Judge Lucy Koh against Samsung has stemmed largely from U.S. Patent No. 8,086,604, for a 'universal interface for retrieval of information in a computer system'." Koh believed that Apple could "suffer irreparable harm" for any violation on the '604 patent.

Below are the other three patents, cited by Apple, courtesy of freepatentsonline.com.

• U.S. Patent No. 5,946,647 for a "system and method for performing an action on a structure in computer-generated data."

• U.S. Patent No. 8,046,721 for a system describing "unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image" or the "slide to unlock" function found on iOS device.
