You might have to be a massive Apple fan to spot the differences, because I sure can’t. This is unless you’re counting a light color scheme and tables in the middle at -all- as “copying”.

This store doesn’t use traditional tables like Apple does, has an odd-shaped side and back, splashes color and banners everywhere while ruining the minimalist look Apple strives for, has different lighting, different flooring – what on EARTH am I missing? The only similarity I could imagine isn’t shown in the photo: the all-glass front.

When looking at a store pic like that Samsung one, I’m actually wondering what they could change to make it so people don’t compare it to an Apple Store. I couldn’t imagine a better way to show off your devices than the way it’s done here.
