Samsung steals idea from Motorola for their Galaxy Note 7?
At Galaxy Note 7 release date, the Korean company is suggested to steal the idea from Motorola for this Note. So, is it true that Samsung steals the cool feature from Motorola phones?
Samsung steals Always On display of Note 7 from Motorola?
Galaxy Note 7 – a dreamer’s device – has just created a fever in the last couple weeks. With stunning dual-curved screen design and powerful specs, this phone is one of a kind. Not even mention that this new Samsung flagship has some unique and cool features. Iris scanner, dust+water proof, and Always On display are some examples. Everyone is so excited for the day this handset is available in the market. Galaxy Note 7 release date was on 19th August.
However, it seems like that the release date of this Note is not so smooth. Right before Galaxy Note 7 was released, Motorola had said that Samsung steals their idea. This brand posted on the Twitter with the hashtag of #TheOriginalAlwaysOnDisplay and #motozdroid. The company claimed that the Korean giant stole the cool feature-Always On display from them. Along with the status is a picture of their Moto Z.
This is kinda weird. Because Note 7 is not the first Samsung device to sport this feature. Always On display used to be equipped on the couple Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. However, this feature is not stand out on these two handsets. It’s not until Note was “born” that this cool feature is hugely improved.
Always On display is not originally from Motorola
And if you don’t remember, we’ll remind you. Always On display is not the original feature from Motorola. This kind of feature used to be seen on Nokia handset- MeeGo-based N9 or Nokia N8. After that, the feature was developed with the name of Glance Screen. Motorola is just the first brand to released an Android phone having Always On display, or Active Display. So, it’s not true to say that Samsung steals Always On display from Motorola.
