A US court has ordered Samsung to pay 119.6 million dollars to Apple for infringing two of their patents.

According to The BBC, the amount is less than 10 percent of what Apple requested and probably doesn't surpass by too much the amount Apple spent litigating the case.

However, the court also ruled that Apple too infringed Samsung's patents and awarded 158,000 dollars in damages, the report added.

Meanwhile, Samsung denied any wrongdoing and stated that Apple infringed two of their patents, and asked for 5 million dollars as damages.
