The rivalry between Apple, a multinational technology company based in the United States, with a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, Samsung, has been the subject of many news articles as of late.
Meaning analysis: The rival between 2 big companies has been the subject of many news. Also, we have some descriptive information about this companies.
Error analysis: commonly used idiom “between X and Y” where X and Y perfectly //.
Subject “the rivalry” – singular – takes “has been” – singular – so we are fine here.
Present perfect correctly shows action started in the past (unknown time) and continuing in the present time.
A. The rivalry between Apple, a multinational technology company based in the United States, with a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, Samsung, has been
B. Rivals Apple, a multinational technology company based in the United States, against a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, Samsung, have been
(where is "between"? we've lost the intended meaning. Now rivals of Apple against Samsung and has been the subject of latest news, "have been" doesn't connected properly with main verb "against", moreover distorts intended meaning)
C. The rivalry between Apple, a multinational technology company based in the United States, and Samsung, a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, has been
D. A rivalry between Apple, a multinational technology company based in the United States, with Samsung, a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, has been
E. Jo Multinational technology company based in the United States, Apple, and the rivalry with a multinational conglomerate based in South Korea, Samsung, has been
(total mess here, we have company and rivalry that "has been" the subject of latest news, at least "has" should be plural, awful)
C is on the pedestal
