As Apple's long awaited iPhone X hit shelves around the world, Samsung's newest ad uses the opportunity to make a mockery of the last 10 years of iPhone products. __①__

Samsung's latest advertisement, released through the company's YouTube channel, highlights how apparently late to the game Apple has been with each version of the iPhone over the last decade as compared to other smartphones, from waterproofing to the headphone jack. __②__

And, as they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery(恭维): a new trial has been ordered to determine how much Samsung should pay Apple for copying the look of the iPhone.

There's another irony to this battle: Samsung has a vested(既定的) interest in the iPhone X's success, given that Samsung supplies the OLED display, NAND flash and the DRAM chips in the
