Apple Gets Slapped with 862M lawsuit, HTC A9, and Motorola Turbo 2 - Android Weekly
The Apple Patent Ruling: A $862 Million Verdict
In a recent court ruling, a US jury has found Apple guilty of infringing on patented technology owned by the University of Wisconsin Madison's Warf licensing arm. The patent infringement is related to Apple's processors used in the iPhone 6. This verdict could result in Apple being on the hook for a substantial damage payout of $862 million. It is worth noting that this ruling comes after similar lawsuits filed against Apple by Warf last month, targeting the company's A9 and a9x processors found in the iPhone 6s and iPad Pro. In these cases, Apple failed to convince the jury that the University's patent was invalid.
As part of this ruling, Apple had previously tried to convince the US patent office to review the patent. However, their bid was rejected back in April. Now, with the verdict against them, it remains to be seen how much Apple will ultimately have to pay. The implications of this ruling are significant and could potentially impact Apple's business operations and financial performance.
