Samsung has sued Electronic Times for 300 million KRW (about $284,000 US) regarding its reporting related to the company’s new Galaxy S5 phone.
According to a report by the Korean language MediaToday, Samsung is taking issue with negative reports related to the Galaxy S5 camera.
Samsung alleges the news source published incorrect information, while the news site appeared to defend its reports, stating that “the story fits the facts” and was not a “false alarm.”
Samsung expressed concerned that unflattering reports might cause customers to hesitate before buying its new flagship model during the critical launch quarter, and just as the company is seeking to placate investors concerned about the previous Galaxy S4 failing to meet its sales expectations.
I best make no comment just in case.
