How is that possible when Apple's clone is based on whatever Samsung already announced/releaseD?

They copy each other but make minor errors in each copy. The fitter copies survive. That's called "evolution by natural selection."

You know Samsung lost a billion dollar lawsuit because they stole the entire iPhone UI right?

No, it was $500M and centered about this design patent for rounded corners: https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/fa/21/81/670fbfd...

That's it. These clipart pictures really are the complete patent.

you mean the lawsuits Apple couldn't win outside Koh's court in Apple's backyard?
