Samsung and Nvidia Lawsuit topic
Back in September 2014, NVIDIA launched a lawsuit against Samsung Galaxy devices equipped with Qualcomm SoCs. NVIDIA stated that Samsung and Qualcomm violated its GPU unit vectors and 6 other GPU data processing utility patents. NVIDIA asked for a ban on all Galaxy devices starting from Galaxy S3 to Galaxy Note 4.
In December 2014, Samsung launched a countersuit with several of its utility patents on transistors and data occupational vectors. Samsung asked for a ban on all NVIDIA devices including SHIELD devices.
In April 2015, pretrial hearing concluded 6 patents in favor of NVIDIA and 1 patent in favor of Samsung.
There are several other companies such as HTC, Sony, LG, and Nokia that utilize Qualcomm SoC processors and GPU units, but NVIDIA targeted only Samsung (the biggest company out of all phone manufacturers). If the final ruling concludes in favor of NVIDIA, Samsung will be required to provide them with monetary damages (possibly as high as billion) and removing its devices from all the stores in the US.
