A legal battle between Apple and Qualcomm in China could prevent the sale of iPhones in the country. The issue focuses around patents held by Qualcomm that are apparently being infringed upon by Apple.
Qualcomm and Apple are caught up in a legal battle in China over supposed patent infringement by Apple regarding the working of it’s software. The chipmaker recently won a preliminary injunction from a court in China that would stop the sales of several iPhone models from the iPhone 6S to the 8 Plus and X.
This legal fight has been going for over a year where all sorts of accusations and banning attempts have been thrown around, from Apple accusing Qualcomm of artificially inflating prices through market dominance to Qualcomm attempting to ban the iPhone from use on certain US networks.
