Epic v. Google: everything we learned in Fortnite court
See all Stories
This is Epic’s argument, not an old Google document, as laid out for the jury in a “demonstrative” slide:
Cost
Time: people keep their phones 2.8 years on average
Switching phones = switching ecosystems
It feels a lot like learning a foreign language
Transfer and set up involves an average of 40 steps and 9 hours
There is no one place for help
A successful transfer of data does not equal a successful switch
Losing data
Apps/feature incompatibility
Phone spec inequality
Users are attached to key features
Users’ technical acumen
Committed to other devices in the ecosystem.
