Following its $1.049 billion court victory Friday, Apple is asking for a U.S. sales ban on eight Samsung devices, according to reports.
Those devices are:
Galaxy S 4G
Galaxy S2 (AT&T)
Galaxy S2 (Skyrocket)
Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile)
Galaxy S2 Epic 4G
Galaxy S Showcase
Droid Charge
Galaxy Prevail
Apple came up with the list after reviewing the verdict, decided by a nine-member jury. The Galaxy SII ban is carrier specific.
Why these?
The ban of eight may seem small when considering Apple was going after 28 devices during the course of the trial, however the ones it picked out are the only products still sold in the United States.
Each device was found to violate a design patent, utility patent, trade dress or have multiple infringements over the course of several years.
TechRadar has reached out to Samsung regarding if and how they intend to fight the proposed bans.
Samsung asked U.S. District judge Lucy Koh to lift a pre-trial ban she placed on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 after a jury found it didn't infringe on trade dress claims for the iPad 3.
