The Samsung products that was identified by Apple that they had plans on trying to ban from sale in the United States appears in the pictures above. While Samsung was found guilty Friday of infringement with 28 different devices, some of them where no longer sold in the United States.

In the filing Apple says it “has tailored this list to address a portion of the immediate, ongoing irreparable harm that Apple is suffering.” bringing the list of 28 offending devices down to eight that are currently on the market. The list includes:

After a year of scorched-earth litigation, a federal jury in San Jose, Calif., awarded Apple approximately $1.05 billion in damages after a three-week patent trial Friday. The jury in the case found that Samsung “willfully” infringed on five of seven Apple patents including the iPhone’s iconography, its “pinch-and-zoom” feature, the “bounce-back” effect in on-screen scrolling and the double-tap zoom innovative technology used to create its revolutionary iPhone and iPad.

Apple Inc. filed its patent infringement lawsuit in April 2011 and engaged legions of the country's highest-paid patent lawyers to demand $2.5 billion from its top smartphone competitor. Samsung Electronics Co. fired back with its own lawsuit seeking $399 million.

Apple stock hit an all time high of $682.07 per share Monday morning following its victory, while shares of Samsung Electronics fell 7.5%.

Samsung is expected to appeal the court’s ruling anytime soon.
