Headphoneus Supremus
Design patents are notoriously hard to actually argue in court, hence why the Apple v Samsung cases took so long in every country, and ended up with various results in every country they sued each other in.
Honestly though, all a lawyer would need to do would be to bring in all of the photos we have in this thread to show that the design is different enough, and that the general plastic-y "trifold" design is ubiquitous across the entire headphone industry.
That is true. But no matter how hard it may be, they still try to argue over it. It's not about the result of the lawsuit - it's about sending a message.
A problem would arise if the lawyer couldn't tell the difference between their own side's product from the opponent's.
