Um... look at the picture in the story. Again. And again…. Until you get it.
Are you saying that the phones in the 'before' weren't smartphones? Yes they lacked some functionality but they still were smartphones. That's like saying CRT TVs weren't televisions, because of the current crop of TVs are so much better.
If you think the pre-iPhone 'smart'phones were similar to the iPhone in the way that CRTs are similar to flat-panel TVs, I really don't know where to start.

Flat panel TVs are far more complex and have much more technology in them compared to a CRT than a iPhone has to those older smartphones.
Just before we proceed, I've answered many of your previous points but I don't appear to be able to locate your posts conceding them.
Would you be able to assist me in locating them?
You showed me what I already knew, that the iPhone caused a 'crisis of design' at Samsung, that point I concede, but how do you know that no other phone ever did that? Just because they admitted to one doesn't mean it hasn't happened before. Now if you have a link proving that then I'd like to see it.
FWIW the Motorola Razr probably caused a crisis in design too. Sammy came up with the Sync clone. Then the Moto Q may have caused yet another. Yup, Sammy rushed out the Blackjack.. It's nothing new nor is it unexpected that they'd find more inspiration in the iPhone. Personally I'm surprised if Apple didn't anticipate it considering past history.
If you already knew the iPhone caused a crisis of design at Samsung then why did you make post 77?
You said none of those phones ever caused a crisis in design? I asked you how did you know that. We're all aware of what was said regarding the iPhone, so where did you read anything regarding any other phone?

Do we have any documentation confirming a 'crisis of design' (or something similar) from the head of their mobile division, or did they just copy it?

When you're on the classification committee let me know.
Now show me where no other phone caused a 'design in crisis' at Samsung, because that's the claim you made.

Ok and where did the designs for the 'before' Samsung smartphones come from? Did Samsung invent the keyboard form factor?

See post 85.
You don't appear to have conceded post 73 either.
Unless of course, you do believe a phone that constantly sacrifices display for input method is 'smart'.

Well how to analysts classify a smartphone? Are they on this committee?
Easy, Sammy did not introduce any evidence that they had a 132 page slide deck on the blackberry and countless other designs they stole.
So now you believe it was good for other smartphones to become touchscreen? Make up your mind.
Had Motorola sued them it might have been produced then too. It was only revealed to Apple via discovery.
Ahh so there could've been a 'crisis in design' over at Samsung when keyboard designs first came out. Thanks for affirming that for me.
There's no documentation either for or against, but you're the one making the claim for against.
How so. Sammy probably just copied and pasted. And didn't compare and contrast like they did with the iPhone.
Simply copying does not mean "crisis in design".
