This early, technology pundits are anticipating another platform where rivals Apple and Samsung will fight over - page-turning patent.

The South Korean tech giant had filed a patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a patent of page turning in ebooks in its bid to provide Samsung product fans real-world effects in an electronic world medium.

Application number 20130104017 includes different effects on different ways a person flips a page in real books such as from the middle to the outer edge, from the bottom corner or the top corner. The various methods of turning pages are based on how people turn real paper pages.

Slashgear, however, noted that Apple already holds a similar patent that iOS user see in iBooks and raises the spectacle of another legal battle over the technology.

However, Goodreader pointed out that Samsung's patent differs from Apple's because the current page-changing scheme is more like browsing a Web page while the South Korean company's application brings it up a level higher by offering real book experience within the digital edition.

The Web site pointed out that Apple's patent used the animated page turn, but Samsung's mimicked the real page turn including peeking at the next page.
