    One of the hottest lawsuit cases last year was the Samsung vs Apple case in which both companies sued each other over patent infringements. Eventually, Samsung lost the case and was ordered to pay over $1 Billion to Apple in damages, but that amount has been revised now. Judge Koh has just reduced $450,514,650 from the original amount and now Samsung has to pay a total of $598,908,892 in a second trial. Samsung can actually try to lower the new amount in the second trial but we will see what the Korean giant really does. Judge Koh hasn't announced the date of the second trial but we will keep you guys posted as soon as we get any information on that.
