Apple Denies Iphone Sales Ban In China - Phones

By -
US chip-maker Qualcomm claims it has won an injunction against Apple that effectively bans the import and sale of a number of iPhone models, ranging from the iPhone 6S to the iPhone X.
The preliminary order, issued by a Chinese court, is the latest in step a continuing feud between the two tech giants over intellectual property.



However, Apple says all of its iPhone models remain on sale in the country.

The disputed patents relate to software rather than hardware.

The injunction affects devices running older versions of Apple’s iOS operating system and not those running the latest version, iOS 12.

The court found Apple had violated two of Qualcomm’s patents – one regarding photograph resizing and the other related to how apps are managed on a touch screen.

“Apple continues to benefit from our intellectual property while refusing to compensate us,” said Don Rosenberg, general counsel of Qualcomm.

However, Apple responded that the attempted ban was “another desperate move by a company whose illegal practices are under investigation by regulators around the world”.

    After dodging the court for years, finally Jim Iyke is found guilty because judgement has been given against Him.I would rather say, to help or invest in people nowadays is scaryI took it upon myself to personally follow this Case up! In my course of studying this case I actually found Jim Iyke has been dodging this case with so many silly excuses for years but finally he can’t run no more. He is found guilty, and indebted to Madam Habiba Abubakar.       Habiba Abubakar is a woman with a Good heart, who has helped so many Nigerians far and near even beyond Africa in general with her NGO (the elderly and the poor) program, irrespective of their tribe, faith and religion.In all my findings, Jim Iyke took advantage of her kind gesture to defraud her of a whooping 16 million naira and thought he could scare heron Twitter by saying she is only interested in dating him.Jim is notoriously known for fighting with several other women like Habiba Abubakar.   ...
