Samsung denies all knowledge of Smart Cover copy
Accusations that Samsung is making headway in the mobile market by copying the work of Apple continue to fly, and the workings of third parties aren't doing much to help: an officially certified accessory has appeared that looks to be taking a cue from Apple's Smart Cover.
Built by Anymode for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, the 'Smart Case' looks a lot like Apple's own Smart Cover: it's a segmented cover designed to protect the screen while also transforming into a stand for the tablet in either portrait or landscape modes.
It's the last thing Samsung needs, as the company already stands accused of being 'inspired' by Apple's iPhone and iPad in the creation of its own Android-based Galaxy product series. The company has a get-out clause for this one, though: it's a third party, and not Samsung itself, that's at fault.
