Apple Inc.’s lawyer told a jury at a $2 billion trial that Samsung Electronics Co. made itself a dominant player in the smartphone industry only by copying the iPhone maker on “feature after feature” over several years.

Apple and Samsung each presented two hours of closing arguments yesterday after almost four weeks of testimony at their second U.S. trial over dueling claims of patent infringement. Jury deliberations began yesterday afternoon and are scheduled to resume today.
