Norcia et al. v. Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC and Samsung Electronics America, Inc., et al.

If you purchased one or more 16 GB Galaxy S4 smart phones in the State of California between April 1, 2013 until July 31, 2013, You May Be Entitled to a Payment From a Class Action Settlement.

A court authorized the Notice and this website. You are not being sued. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

Subject to Court approval, a proposed settlement has been reached in a class action alleging that Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (“Samsung”) programmed Galaxy S4 smart phones to run at higher-than-normal speeds upon detecting certain “benchmarking” apps. The representative plaintiff claims that Samsung violated California consumer protection laws. Samsung denies any claims of wrongdoing and believes Plaintiff’s claims are without merit, but has agreed to settle the lawsuit to avoid the burden and cost of further litigation.
