Looks like they're not just looking to rip off phone design.

This is why I hate samsung. They have no sense of design.
Dyson made a great design for their stuff, just as apple has, make your own!!!!
I haven't supported samsung for the last 3 years. I only own 1 Samsung product, and it is a monitor.
I Switched to LG and Apple for my preferred Electronics, and kirby for vacuums!!
Don't support companies that cheat.

I don't understand why they keep doing it. Surely there would be more pride in making your own work?
Bizarre

Profit > pride
I still would rather have the Apple business model...
And there is more profit (for Samsung) to copy someone else's work.
But Dyson should not be worried. Samsung vacuum cleaners will be the first vacuums ever that don't suck.
Have you thought that maybe, just maybe, those companies paid a royalty to Dyson for that design?
Do we really care about vacuums?
BTW ... Good for Samsung. I heard they added a feature that the vacuum shuts off when you look away from it and turns back on when you look at it.

Definitely my G7 Diamond rocks and will still do so 20 years from now. Then after a quick rebuild it'll do another 25.
I love my G7, perfect for my ground floor.
For upstairs, I have a Kirby from 1957, its a 517. Was found in my great grand parents house when we finally cleaned it out a few years ago.
You wouldn't think they would refurbish it. Wrong, 380 dollars later, I had the same unit that looked brand new with most of the orginal parts, just cleaned up.
Now thats what I call reliable. over 50 years old, still beats a dyson. Cleans better to.

If Samsung are ripping off Dyson its products can only get worse.
James Dyson created a kind of 'genius inventor' mystique/marketing gimmick around himself but his products are very poor.
'Bagless vaccuum cleaners that retain their suction'. No they don't. They're utter junk compared to a £99 Numatic Henry, the best domestic vacuum you can buy at any price. I've used the same Henry machine several times a week around the house, to clean the car, even to suck up heavy building dust and light rubble. Still going strong.
My mum, for some reason, still likes Dyson cleaners even though she gone though about 6 of them (they aren't very reliable) in the time I've had a Henry. She even bought me a handheld Dyson as a Christmas gift. No idea what it's supposed to suck up - fairy dust? Doesn't pick up anything else.
