A Chinese court ordered Apple Inc. to stop selling older iPhone
models in the country after finding the tech giant infringed on two
patents held by Qualcomm Inc., the chip supplier said Monday.
The Nov. 30 decision by a Chinese intellectual-property court is
the first in the world's largest smartphone market that seeks to
curtail iPhone sales.
The preliminary injunction is the latest turn in a long-running
legal dispute between Apple and Qualcomm. The San Diego chip
company has brought more than a dozen cases against Apple over
patent infringement in China.
Qualcomm said the Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court in China
found Apple had infringed on two nonstandard essential patents: one
related to photo editing and another to swiping on a touch-screen
device.
The import and sales ban didn't appear to include Apple's newest
devices -- the XS, XS Max and XR -- because those weren't on the
market when the patent case was filed.
