The Samsung attorney has said that Apple deserves $52 million, whereas Apple asked for $380 million to be awarded to them in the patent dispute with Samsung.

Bill Price, one of the attorneys at Samsung, claimed on Wednesday that Samsung owed $52 million to Apple. This was one of his opening statements during the trial between the two leaders in technology at the moment, Time reports.

Mr Price also said that Samsung did not rip anything off Apple when it made the new phones as those had several different features which included removable batteries and larger screens. On the other hand, Harold McIhenny, the Morrison & Foerster attorney for Apple, earlier argued that Apple should be awarded $380 million for the patent violation.

The previous jury came to a conclusion that Samsung copied the scrolling function in 26 of its products. It also concluded that Samsung copied the iPhone design, among other features from Apple. On the contrary, a judge ruled that the damages were miscalculated by the jury as it gave a verdict of $400 million compensation in favour of Apple.

The impact of Apple iPhone on technological development over the years is definitely understandable, but Apple attorneys referred to the unveiling of the technology in 2007. They reminded the jury how significant the device had been. Mr McIhenny asked Samsung where they were on January 9, 2007 when Apple CEO Steve Jobs introduced the innovation in mobile technology at the Macworld Expo.

Mr McIhenny showed a video where Mr Jobs called the iPhone as "an iPod, a phone and an Internet communicator". The crowd present at the tech expo cheered to his statement. According to Tech World, it is important for Apple to remind the jury of the significance of Apple's innovation named iPhone in the history of mobile technology as it accuses Samsung of stealing five patents to use them on 13 different smartphones by the company.

Both the companies have 8 hours to establish their arguments to the jury. Apple vs. Samsung Electronics (Case 11-01846) is being fought at the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose.
