    What's your point exactly?
    I think her point was that Apple's design wasn't original, since the Sony came out prior.

    I could be wrong.

    What was your point with

    Iphone 5 released before both
    ?

    Did it, for example, have something to do with whether the design of the HTC One and Z10 are innovative?

    That's not actually a Sony katiepea. That was commonly misunderstood at the time. It's an apple design which they called their Sony inspired design. It's worth noting that the actual Sony product that inspired them looked quie a bit different indeed, while the resemblance to the final iPhone of this design is clear. Apple got treated unfairly there... Although... Maybe they set themselves up.... I have heard that apple. Patrols the media! :-)

    The Z10 design was shown off over a year ago, and well before the iPhone5.

    There was an older moto device that looks very similar to both the new htc, iphone 5 and z10. There just isnt to many ways you can do a slab of glass these days

    Yes.a lot of people think the htc one is iPhone 5 inspired with the shoe and metal edges. The whit version of their win8 phone had the white trim, though only on the bottom. Anyways, as I have said before.... A slab is a slab.

    there's a lot of truth to this, sony uses samsung lcd panels for their TV's as sony does not manufacture lcd panels themselves.

    Thats tenacious at best.

    Simple fact, there is no functional unique design for a smartphone with current technology.
    Sooner people like Apple and others who claim rip off realise this, the sooner we can develop new technology that will lead to new designs

    agreed, i was just trying to say that it was not an exact match. if anything i would say the HTC one looks more like the image than the Z10 does. Really, though... it is a rectangle made of glass, how unique can it be.

    I think companies have to start thinking to do other designs so some people will stop complaining about similar designs !!!
    Maybe like these :

    You beat me to the punch. I had one of these awful phones for a minute. Needed a stylus. My friend wanted kt but couldn't afford it so I bought it and he payed me in payments. Any who anyone hear about apple's smart watch??? Guess what people?
