It doesn't shock me that Samsung keeps doing this. They have been doing this for quite a while and nobody is stopping them. It is there model until it is shut down. Not sure that will ever happen though.
Samsung already lost once. From the linked article:
"In February 2009 a judge ordered Samsung to pay Dyson about £600,000 after it tried to patent the British firm's existing "triple-cyclone" suction technology."
Eventually courts will have to understand the flagrant disease under which this inscrutable company works and will have to come down heavily on it. The company is pathological in its design to copy everything to make coin. This Dyson suit will be as much fun to follow as the old time carnival freak shows. How i miss the bearded ladies, and snake skin dudes; but they don't stand a chance against this clown taken to court.

I agree. At what point do the courts escalate the punishments for repeated offenses (even against the SAME companies)?
At least they copy from the best design companies around. Yes they're thieves but they're thieves with taste - you gotta give them that.
I've heard in Asian Culture it's the biggest form of flattery to be copied as close to the Master product as possible. Too bad this clashes with Western mores and values... /s with a hint of truth in the first part.
Samsung (I will not stoop to name calling) needs to be specifically singled out and banned from Trade groups, shows, and advertising. Also their twisted use of "innovation" needs to be stopped immediately!
If you can't patent rectangles the you can't patent cylinders either, huh. This is too funny for words. It just confirmed all of our rants about Samesung and their copy machines. Let's face it, the Asians have no taste when it comes to design for the West so they HAVE to copy what they see succeeding. Prime example is the Samsung Gear product released before Apple's rumored entry. We can all guaran-damn-tee the world that Samsung's design will change radically when a successful product is eventually released.
I asked an expert in the field of household appliances (my wife :P) what make of vacuum cleaner that was in the picture (I covered up the samsung logo). She immediately said, Dyson. Nice, more 'passing off' by Samsung.

Sure they have taste ...
Look at this pic. Look closer .... that girl's hands and fingers .... you know how difficult it is to find a Korean girl with that size hands to hold one of those phablets?!!
See how she has like broken her thumbs to hold those!

Actually that's easy to explain. That's distortion from the use of an ultra wide angle lens with appendages close to the edges of the frame. My Korean friends mentioned to me some Korean soaps that were apparently sponsored by either Samsung or LG, where an actress was holding one of these huge screen devices to her head as she made a call. It was practically bigger than her head... very silly, but I guess people like being silly.

Too late. You suck. Clean up your act.
Bigger sucking head, you mean. Samsung will be the first vacuum manufacturer with a 20" sucking head.
Other than your mom, of course! OH SNAP!!!
(Sorry, this is no way a personal attack, just the inner 14-year old in me not being able to contain himself!)
Samescum is a corporate kleptomaniac. 'Nuff said.

Back in the days of camcorders they ripped of sony.
It must be cheaper for them to rip of a design and pay the odd fine then being creative in their own right.
Big shame really.
why not just bomb the factory?
Sony should have sued Samsung years ago for copying their designs.
