When Companies Copy Each Other... 

Has apple ever „mocked“ Samsung about a feature they then copied?

This. It was pretty embarrassing for Samsung to use Ads and their Twitter account to mock Apple, and then end up copying the Apple Airpod Pros and Apple Watch Ultra.

@@freund_heinnope

@@freund_hein the stylus

I still remember the day when Samsung (or maybe other android brands?) mocked Apple for not including the charging brick. Here we are now, Samsung also doesn't provide a charging brick...

It’s been always like that, Samsung don’t even own its AI

My favourite watch is my Seiko Orange Monster. I barely wear it since getting my Apple Watch Ultra, but I love that inspiration they’ve all used from the Seamaster.

Na it was def the doxa 🟠🟠

Orange is the easiest color to see when things get lost. They use it in all the outdoor/extreme gadgets and here in ultra watches, if you would ever take that thing of the orange would stare right into your eyes.

Doxa

"International Orange". It's the sign that you are "athletic and adventurous". Marketing at its best.

It sucks that watch 7 doesnt have this. Not even the ultra :(

I thought I'd miss the physical bezel, but have to say the capacitive touch rotating border around the face works even better for me.

@@le10017 same concept, that's practical as well however the bezel is much more seamless and also protects my screen from scratches. I was a bit clumsy in my first month, but thankfully the paint was extremely durable.

I have a pimped out watch 4 classic 46mm. It's got a custom dial like a Rolex and I made a custom Rolex Oyster perpetual datejust with an arabic dial watch face for it and it looks insanely beautiful.

Yea, it should be apple watch pro.

Samsung calls their buds Pro then again so nah Ultra is not Samsungs and the name is not even the big issue watch the video!

Then why not do it before?

trueee ​@@kaskovic1993

Galaxy buds Pro? Samsung Watch 5 Pro? Samsung does the same thing do they not? If Apple started calling their phones ultra then yeah but Samsung doesn't own the moniker "Ultra" just because they use it on one particular model. In fact Ultra and Pro are probably the most used monikers in the phone industry because quite frankly... There aren't any others that rolls off the tongue.

It's more the overall packaging of those features that's copied. Before this Samsung never really had an 'adventure watch' type offering that actually competed with the like of the AW Ultra, Garmins, etc

​@@4lc441 watch 5pro

Yeah, a lot of things that were mentioned, the Samsung watch has been doing for years. Also, Samsung has been using "Ultra" for their premium products for years. I'm typing this from my Galaxy Note 23 Ultra. And another thing, orange bands are not new for diving watches. Obviously, it's for visibility.

As if. Explain Samsung mocking the iPhone notch and copying it in less than a year.

And it gets destroyed if you work construction where fine dust particles is present. That is why a rotating bezel won't work in extreme enviroments.

​@@MrPariserpooand every fcking one works in extreme environments, right?

@@andrewcocos nope. I work in construction and have had 3 watches with rotating bezel die because fine dust ruined the bezel. Had to go for a standart samsung watch which have lasted me 3 years and still goind strong. So if a watch need to be used under extreme condition some moving parts is not to be desired.

There no swiveling bezel.

Where do you see the copy?

@@ROGER-yo9cy you blind

@@ROGER-yo9cy Just watch the video again maybe.

I think you're 100% right. Though at this point every tech company is copying other companies: especially in the smartphone market we're getting almost the same phones, but with different software and slightly different cameras. It makes me feel sad that very few companies are trying to make their products innovative and different.

It's been happening with their phones for a decade

This watch shows we're pretty much there.

technology will always innovate new features into our devices

It will just become whatever Apple does, because let's be honest here... when Apple copies an idea, they implement it in their own way, and then everyone else copies Apple's version of it because they actually put effort into the UX design.

I was a huge fan for the rotating bezel too, but from my experience with the 7 Ultra, the capacitive touch rotating border around the face seems more intuitive.

Not only that but I'm wearing my Watch 3 right now and it still spins just fine. And I wear it to work as a tradesman. They've been plenty tough for years.

It comes every other generation, like you'll see it again in the 8

Samsung had the watch 5 pro that was their ultra, if they added the rotating bezel in it it would have been great and not a copycat

And also the fact that Samsung had it first, it is called Universal gesture.

It’s also been on Apple Watch for more than 2yrs.

Not only that Samsung always had that watch face cutomization by holding the watch face, and their app drawer has always been like that for years now.

I think Apple had this feature way before Samsung , Samsung did it after Apple has done it and made it public

@@Omar-kl3xp untrue, it has been an accessibility feature in Samsung long before it came in Apple watch.

Yeah I agree like changing the watch faces that's always been that way same with all the apps work

I agree! That existed for a long time ago with my watch, 3.

Marques has been an apple agent for quite a long time now. And it's not only some bias, but he really is lying again and again (like the changeable watchface thing - or he really has that little knowledge of these products), which is a shame.

@@summer5684guess what came out before the watch 3 🤡 Apple watch

But they seriously couldn’t see how this could be taken it’s really just a bad idea to make it look like that

@@superTalon2023 I agree. They could have made it a square for easy reading. Perhaps reinvent the early galaxy watch

Not wrong

Exactly...

Half the review is misleading, as always. So many features (like the colors or the button) come from other, much older analog watches or Garmins etc. To be fair, context and accuracy have never been a priority for this channel. It's all about the drama.

Yes. The original Galaxy Watch from 2018 had the feature of holding the face and editing it or selecting a new face. At least 6 years, and he says Samsung copied that from Apple?

That is a nice touch. Overkill almost, but you love to see it.

You mean... They copied apple? 🫣😂

Hard getting used to the digital bezelm though it does work well. That being said, so far finding the ultra more comfortable to wear compared to my 6 classic, which I wasn't expecting.

@lightoftheworld417 the round face on the square body is really activating my OCD and It just looks awful, I hope they listen and make an ultra with a rotating bezel and a Round on Round bigger Body instead of a Square

@lightoftheworld417 but if you can live with it , I'm Happy For you, , I do want one that the battery last 2 days , it's kinda annoying charging my 6 Classic everyday

@lightoftheworld417 another cool use I got for the bezel is this remote camera App I got on my 6 Classic where I can control my s24 Ultra camera, cause the bezel acts like a way to zoom in and out using the cameras

​@@TheOfficialChannelOfChannelsnext year, you can take that to the bank

Well you said burried. So its irrelevant.

Apple Watches had it long before too. Not in this exact format, but I had it back on Series 5 also as an accessibility thing

@@bakhitanzeribe9167 such a shame to see what's he has come to

Yeah… like he said in the video… it was in beta last year. Did you watch the video?

@@nickbutts4561 and so does the Samsung's

Thanks for bringing this up. Samsung did indeed release a smart watch smart watch “first”, if you don’t count the already very popular “Pebble” watch of course. The rumors of an Apple Watch started in 2010 after iPod Nanos were being fitted with watch straps. By the time rumors come out of Apple it usually means it’s already underway. In 2012 Apple officially began development of the Apple Watch. In 2013 Samsung released the “Galaxy Gear” which was so bad as a watch they didn’t even call it a watch yet. It was rushed to market to trick people into thinking they were “first”. If you don’t count the Pebble of course. Which was already a thing. Surely you remember. In 2014 the Apple Watch was announced by Tim Cook as a “one more thing”. In 2015 an Apple executive mentioned in a Wired article that Apple acknowledged that people always having their phones out made in-person communication impersonal and they were working on a new device would reduce the need to always have an iPhone out. The first Apple Watch was released on April 24, 2015. Now you do the same for Samsung.

And Pebble and Sony released smartwatches before Samsung. And one of the iPod Nano’s from before even those was able to be used as a watch, even adding a bunch of faces in a software update. Also the Galaxy Watch Ultra’s design language has a lot more in common with the Apple Watch Ultra than the old asf Gear watches.

and apple said no one wanted a smartwatch and proceeded to make one

No they took what Apple did I purpose to throw it in they face I don’t know why ppl keep giving these crazy back stories like Samsung is super petty on purpose They copied the watch to troll

I don't know if you're talking about the same model, but i had a blue gear sport back in 2018, it was released in 2017 and didn't look as squared as this new model even though they are a bit similar. The first Apple Watch was released in 2015.
