Proceedings in the ongoing antitrust trial against Qualcomm have now revealed that the iPhone maker wanted the company to furnish its latest phones with modems, but was turned down by Qualcomm.
The ongoing legal spats between Qualcomm and Apple have been among some of the most interesting fireworks within the tech space, at least since Apple and Samsung’s marquee battle over patents. The dispute has now expanded into an antitrust filing by the United States Federal Trade Commission against Qualcomm, which is now undergoing trial.
Among the more interesting revelations from recent testimony in the case was the admission by Apple’s Chief Operating Officer, Jeff Williams, that despite their disputes, Apple still wanted to use Qualcomm’s modems in its latest generation of iPhones.
