Oh god, it even has the PlayStation symbols, this is shameful.

triverse4370d ago

Are you talking about the little arrows on the thumb pad and the use of "X", Square, Triangle and Circle opposite? It works and it is recognizable to gamers- what is wrong with it?

I would mention something about how controllers over the years have featured copying across the board but I would rather have an intelligent debate with you about this stuff rather than us degrading into "rip-off"/"It works" comments back and forth.

mushroomwig4370d ago

I'm not even sure how they can get away with that since those symbols are a PlayStation copyright;

burn... do you still want to have your intelligent debate? Lol

GameSpawn4369d ago (Edited 4369d ago )

@mushroomwig

That specifically mentions the use of Triangle, Circle, X, and Square in print and in that order. As far as by themselves alone they are just general shapes, in fact too general to have a copyrights or trademark on individually.

However, the specific arrangement and coloring as they appear on all the DualShock controllers, the PSP and Vita IS trademarkable and copyrightable. Since this company changed the look slightly and also the arrangement, they skirt around violating any trademarks or copyrights, but just barely.

Speed-Racer4370d ago

Without a doubt this is a straight copy and paste of the Vita. A blind man could even see that. What's sad about this whole situation is that they are using the design to fool less knowledgeable people into purchasing the product. This is just like those cars in China that look almost exactly like european brands such as Mercedes and BMW, but are just complete ripoffs.

majiebeast4370d ago (Edited 4370d ago )

Wow JXD you just basicly ripped off the entire playstation vita from button to overal design. First i thought i was looking at a white psvita.

Double_O_Revan4369d ago

What the hell am I looking at? its a PSP running Android. kind of cool....ish, but the specs suck, and it doesnt even have the 2nd analog stick.

dboyman4370d ago

If they wanted to rip off ps vita should have copied second analog stick....

Best Android Features That Can Be Integrated In Apple iOS

TechFlashed : Apple is known for its innovation but there are numerous things where we can say Android is ahead of Apple and perhaps it wouldn't be wrong to assume that in the near future Apple may learn some things from Android.Android 4.1 is the fastest and smoothest version of Android yet with improvements throughout the platform and they have added interactive features for users and developers. But beware apple is not new in the business - Apple could bounce back with iOS 6 and has the potential to hit Android hard .

more like how many things apple can rip off from android like the notification drop down menu.....

KwietStorm_BLM4258d ago (Edited 4258d ago )

Beat me to it . I'm surprised apple hasn't sued them for it already.

fatstarr4258d ago

its just proof that Android is #1.
lol I can see it now
Ios7.0

apple fans: " omg omg apple is so smart creating this pattern unlock. android ripped it from apple shame on them"

Soldierone4258d ago

Can't stand that....Happened when I worked with Mac fanboys all the time.

"Omg! They thought of this its so awesome!" Then I'm like "uhh, so and so did that already....its nothing new."

The worst is "oh they copied Apple!" when its the other way around.

AgentWhite4258d ago

Apple in its next ios upgrades may integrate some of these features very smartly . The qusetion is how apple can act smart so that they do not look copied .

AgentWhite4258d ago

Canl apple come up with few new innovations ?

NovusTerminus4258d ago

Apple can take them, and sue everyone over them, claiming they created them.

Jonoc334258d ago

I love how all you Android fanboys complain about how Apple "steals stuff" and is "number 1" and all this other crap. To be quite honest, I don't think anybody cares about these facts at all. Both phones have their ups and downs.

Remember that Apple basically reinvented this new smartphone industry. If anything, Android stole a hell of a lot and just took it further.

CerebralAssassin4258d ago

I'm rather tired of this android vs apple crap myself. If you like unstable android phone more power to ya. If you like mainstream pay for everything you do apple then get it. Either shut the hell up already nobody cares which phone you think is better. All I can say is you don't see a new iPhone every 3 months. Android phones are getting milked like no other. Personally I'd like to see a good windows phone that is really supported with the amount of apps apple has. That would be great for me.

KwietStorm_BLM4258d ago

lol that's like saying Windows PCs are getting milked like no other. Android is a licensed OS, not a phone. What do you expect? Is it bad that we have options?

CerebralAssassin4252d ago

To kwietstorm:

Options aren't bad at all. But when you see a new android phone out every other month it can create a lot of buyers remorse. If nothing else I'd like to see more options in terms do OS. And windows PC represents an OS not the pc itself.the pc can be upgraded without having to purchase an entire new pc. So I think your comment was wrong. They don't come out with a new OS every other month either.

Crazay4258d ago (Edited 4258d ago )

" Apple basically reinvented this new smartphone industry"?!?!?

0.o Really?!?

Do you even realize how asinine that comment is? Let's think about this for a moment...The concept of smart phones ...OH YEA!!! Created and implemented by RiM loong before Steve "Look at my how progressive my fancy turtleneck is" Jobs even sniffed the industry. That was back in the late 90s. I even had the opportunity to see an early BB back then as myself and one of my coworkers sold RIM some of their first computers when they got their Venture Capital.

Some people's children... Reading what some people deem as reality gives me motrin pain.

spunkee3114257d ago

I completely agree Jonoc,

let me start off by saying these features mentioned above don't really interest me all that much.
I've had an apple phone since the 3GS. For me personally, I love the iPhone. Its features and ease is exactly, what I want personally for my phone. I was never ever a fan of Android. My ex has the myTouch 3g and my parents had the EVO and I thought they were horrible. Very laggy, glitchy. Didn't like a lot of stuff which is too much to mention. With that being said, once the Galaxy came out I was amazed. This is finally what android and a phone should be. THe Galaxy 2 and 3 are finally the first Android to impress me.

gdguide4258d ago

Apple stole stuff and Android stole stuff. Apple was the first to bring some of this to a smartphone, but some of it was already there with palm pilots, some with Windows Tablet PCs, and some with other phones. It just pisses me off when Apple claims everyone is just copying them and they are the only innovators in features consumers want. A heck of a lot of features were there before Apple, and Apple were just copying the same ideas to a smartphone.
