It is no secret to anyone the war between Apple and Microsoft on one side and the Google Android system on the other side, and we previously spoke in an article entitled Wars between companies to where The term war is not a verbal exaggeration, but Steve Jobs himself used another, more powerful term in his published memoirs, "nuclear war", after saying that the Android system is a "thief" system that steals other people's ideas and patents and uses them without permission from their owners and that he will launch a nuclear war against Android To eliminate it. But will the war continue? After Apple's success in registering patents for multi-touch technology, experts announced that Apple might earn 10 dollars from every device that carries the Android system because of Android's violation of its intellectual property rights.
Number 10 dollars profit, or if we like to say “fine” is not a small number. To learn the magnitude of the number, you must know that Google tells that there are 700 new devices running the Android system every day, and this means that it gets 7 million dollars a day or more than 2.5 billion dollars annually. But this number is not an official figure announced by Apple, but it is the estimation of experts in the field of intellectual property, which is their attempt to persuade Apple to accept compensation instead of this war that will not end and will lead to a loss for both parties. Apple's ban on selling some Samsung products in several countries, followed by a quick response, which is that Google (through its Motorola subsidiary) sued Apple Germany and defeated Apple before Motorola, which, if it continues, may endanger the $ 2.7 billion belonging to Apple Germany as a result of this court ruling ... So why do not the companies sit together to reach a satisfactory settlement for all parties ?? This is not new to Apple. Last June, Apple and Nokia agreed to settle and end the legal dispute between them in exchange for Apple paying an unannounced amount of money as compensation to Nokia for violating Apple's intellectual property registered to Nokia ... If Apple actually violates the intellectual property of some companies and Apple accepts sitting with some of its opponents and the agreement I have to settle financially so why not do the same with Google and make billions of dollars from Android?

Some people may defend and say that this is Apple's right because the Android system steals its patents and then puts them in its products to compete with Apple, and this kind of competition is "dishonest" because you are not only satisfied with what you innovate, but also take the ideas of others. Well, this opinion is completely correct, but there is a problem that this war will never end and no one will win. Apple’s choice to implement Hitler’s military policy of "scorched earth", which means eliminating the competitor completely, will not succeed in the technical war. For example, when a final court ruling was issued against Samsung prohibiting the sale of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and this ruling is final and not subject to appeal, what did Samsung do? A new version, 10.1N, was produced with some minor modifications. It represents a circumvention of the court ruling and Apple's strong points on which the verdict was issued. And the device is available for sale and Apple will not be able to stop it (as Samsung and experts expect). So the continuation of this war is meaningless, and it is like placing a large stone in the middle of a river to block it. The stone will be able to stop the water for a while, but after that the amount of water will increase and it will rotate around the stone to continue in its natural course before the stone.

The bottom line
- أBut You will not be able to stop Android permanently.
- Camel It also violates the intellectual property of others (but to a lesser extent).
- Camel The settlement policy and the erroneous payment of financial compensation are accepted for the rightful party.
- Camel You can earn approximately 3 billion dollars annually from Android.
- Camel It did not lose any market with the spread of Android, but the spread of the latter was at the expense of other companies such as BlackBerry, whose market fell 77% in 2011 and on the account of Nokia, whose share reached less than 2% of the smart phone market in the US market. So, the Android spread has not withdrawn from the Apple market, and Apple's sales and sales are increasing daily.
So why doesn't Apple decide to win from them and stop the war? Is it the implementation of the will of Steve Jobs? Or is there something hidden that we do not know.
