SEOUL |
SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics Co (005930.KS) said on Thursday the latest version of its flagship smartphone Galaxy S will go on sale in the U.S. market as planned, despite a sales injunction request filed by Apple (AAPL.O) to a U.S. court.
"Samsung believes Apple's request is without merit. We will vigorously oppose the request," the South Korean firm said in a statement.
"We would also like to assure consumers that the U.S. launch and sales of the GALAXY S III will proceed as planned."
U.S. sales of the third generation Galaxy S model, which hit store shelves in some 28 countries last week, have been widely expected to start later this month.
