Galaxy Buds 3, Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and Galaxy Watch Ultra were recently launched by Samsung, but many media and individuals were quick to point out that these products have designs "inspired" by similar devices from the "apple house".

Wccftech said the information reached the group's chairman and Mr. Lee requested a comprehensive inspection of MX Division (mobile unit) with the allegations spreading in the industry.

Korean business magazine Aju News revealed on August 3 that "the current internal atmosphere at Samsung is not very good". Even "some senior executives" in Samsung's mobile division have been transferred.

"Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong, who is quite mild-mannered and doesn't get angry often, has just issued a strict order to employees of the mobile division. According to an insider at Samsung Electronics, the personnel transfer has also been applied to some senior executives, including the head of this division," Aju News quoted the source.

The Verge said that Mr. TM Roh, President of Samsung's Mobile Experience division, will likely be in trouble because of this problem.

Galaxy Watch Ultra is the product that marks the first time Samsung has entered the smartwatch segment with many in-depth features to support sports training.

However, many reviews from world technology sites commented on the similarities between the design of the Galaxy Watch Ultra and the Apple Watch Ultra.

Meanwhile, 9to5Mac commented that the Galaxy Buds 3 are almost identical to Apple's iconic AirPods design.
