Following the verdict against Samsung, Google appeared to distance itself from the largest maker of Android handsets in the world. It claimed that the patents involved in the case were unrelated to the "core Android operating system."

Meanwhile, Samsung says it will continue to wage its intellectual property war against Apple in the courts, the Times reported.

The company said it will press its claims in 50 patent disputes in 10 countries, as well as challenge most of the infringement findings in the verdict handed down in California.

It also pledged to sue Apple if it releases any products using LTE technology, a stance that seems to be aimed at the next iPhone since the iPad already had LTE connectivity.
