A California jury has reached a verdict for how much Samsung will have to pay Apple in additional damages for patent infringement. The court has ruled that Apple will need to pay $290 million for copying many iPhone features.

Last year a jury ruled that Samsung had infringed on five Apple patents related to the iPhone's design and functionality. A judge earlier this year vacated about $450 million of the original award and ordered a new jury convene and recalculate the damages for patent infringement. The verdict reportedly covers 13 older Samsung devices that a previous jury found were among 26 products that infringed on Apple patents, according to the Associated Press via CNBC.

Apple tried to persuade U.S. jurors to keep intact a historic verdict it won against Samsung Electronics CO. Ltd. Meanwhile the Korean company argued that Apple had overstated its injuries from patent violations.

Meanwhile a third trial is scheduled for March to consider Apple's claims that Samsung's newest devices on the market are also copied from some of the Cupertino Calif. company's technology.

Apple has argued its case in front of courts, government tribunals and regulatory agencies around the world that Samsung's Android-based smartphones have copied many of the iPhones key and marketable patented innovations.

"Apple doesn't own beautiful and sexy," Samsung's lawyer William Price told a San Jose jury arguing that Apple was misconstruing the breadth of its patents to include such things as the basic rectangle shape of most smartphones.
