Apple to stop selling iPhones in its stores in Germany after ruling in Qualcomm patent case

Dec 21, 2018

After Apple was barred from importing and selling some iPhone models in China, Qualcomm has now been granted a second injunction against Apple on Thursday, banning the brand from selling some iPhone models in Germany.

Following the ruling in the Apple-Qualcomm patent case, Apple will now stop selling iPhones in its stores in Germany that use chips from Intel and parts from another supplier named Qorvo.

The judge has ruled that phones that contain a combination of chips from Intel and Apple supplier Qorvo violated one of Qualcomm‘s patents around envelope tracking that helps mobile phones save battery power while sending and receiving wireless signals.

In a statement, Apple said that it is planning to appeal the ruling. Under this condition, Judge Matthias Zigann told the ruling would not go into immediate effect. However, Apple said that throughout the appeal process, iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 models will not be sold in its 15 retail stores in Germany.

The company’s new iPhone models, including iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR, will still be sold in those stores. However, the company has clarified that all iPhone models, including iPhone 7 and 8 will still be sold through carriers and other third-party retailers in Germany.

In a statement, Apple said, “We are of course disappointed by this verdict and we plan to appeal. All iPhone models remain available to customers through carriers and resellers in 4,300 locations across Germany.”

On the other hand, Qualcomm said in a press release that the injunction will be in effect as soon as it posts the required bonds. The company added that it would complete the process “within a few days.” Don Rosenberg, executive vice president and general counsel, Qualcomm Incorporated, said:

Two respected courts in two different jurisdictions just in the past two weeks have now confirmed the value of Qualcomm’s patents and declared Apple an infringer, ordering a ban on iPhones in the important markets of Germany and China.

The German case is the chipset maker’s third major effort to secure a ban on Apple’s lucrative iPhones over patent infringement allegations. The company had earlier filed such cases in the United States and in China. This is also Qualcomm’s second major win against Apple after a Chinese court granted an injunction against Apple for an alleged patent violation earlier this month.

The case is part of a broader court conflict between the two technology giants in which Apple has alleged that Qualcomm engaged in anti-competitive business practices for a monopoly on its modem chips.

Leaked Moto g7 series press renders reveal colors, cameras and design

The Moto G7 series may launch earlier than usual going by the number of leaks in the past few weeks. Today brings yet another leak and it is a set of press renders for the whole lineup.

The Moto G7 series will include the Moto G7 itself, the Moto G7 Plus, the Moto G7 Play, and the Moto G7 Power. These press renders show all four phones in various colors and also reveal other details about their design and specs.

Moto G7

The Moto G7 is shown in white. The back is curved and like its predecessor, it is covered in glass. The biggest change in terms of design is the switch to a notched display and in this case, the water-drop style. There is still a bit of bezel at the bottom that is thick enough to accommodate the manufacturer’s name. Housed within the notch is a single camera.

There is also a change in the rear camera design. It retains the circular housing that isn’t flushed with the rest of the back but the change is in the design of the sensors’ housing. Both cameras share a single housing instead of separate ones like the Moto G6. The area around the cameras is coated black and there is a LED flash underneath.

The Motorola batwing logo which doubles as a fingerprint scanner sits below the cameras. The render also shows us that the bottom of the phone is home to a 3.5mm audio jack, a USB type-c port, and a speaker grille.

Moto G7 Plus

The Moto G7 Plus wears a wine-colored coat and has the same curved glass back as the Moto G7. It also has a notched display design though reports say the screen is bigger in size. The back is also the same design as that of the Moto G7. It also has dual rear cameras and a fingerprint scanner under the batwing logo.

The Moto G7 Plus will differ from the Moto G7 in terms of specs and size as is the tradition with the series.

Moto G7 Play

The Moto G7 Play picks up the popular Champagne Gold hue. It has a wide rectangular notch at the top that is home to a camera, a speaker, and an LED flash. It also has a thicker bottom and side bezels compared to the Moto G7 and Moto G7 Plus.

The back of the phone seems like metal but we won’t be surprised if it is plastic although a switch to metal will be appreciated. The camera house has been slightly redesigned but it still has just a single sensor and an LED flash. It also has a fingerprint scanner.

There is a port at the bottom which is likely MicroUSB. There is no audio jack visible at the bottom but we are pretty sure it is at the top just like its predecessor’s.

Moto G7 Power

The Moto G7 is getting a Power-variant this year and the name should already tell you that the selling point of the phone will be its large battery capacity.

The Moto G7 Power has a smaller notch that just houses the front-facing camera and speaker. Its bezels are also thick like that of the Play variant. It also has a similar rear design and appears to be made from the same material – polycarbonate. Its deep blue finish looks good and should be a favorite among those who purchase a unit. There is also a MicroUSB port at the bottom and very likely, a 3.5mm audio jack at the top.

GIONEE may have sunk into bankruptcy due to founder’s gambling habits

Dec 20, 2018

A recent report by Chinese blog iFeng has revealed that judicial proceedings towards obtaining bankruptcy protection for Chinese smartphone maker Gionee are moving forward due to a ruling from Shenzen intermediate people’s court. Sources familiar with the case hint that the proceedings will lead to a complete overhaul of the company.

Gionee’s financial woes is traced to huge debt incurred as a result of the gambling and extravagant spending problems of the company’s founder and chairman Liu Lirong. The present case at the court is as a result of the filed bankruptcy liquidation application by Huaxing bank against the company. The case also extends from the financial problems the company had in year 2017. The company’s chairman recently admitted to having gambling aaddiction.Company executives later disclosed details of the founder’s gambling activities stating that as much as $143.8 million of the total $2.45 billion in the company’s debt was as a result of his gambling. This is the money owed to an approximate 648 creditors. Mr. Liu Lirong extravagant spending may parallel to an amount closer to $1 billion according to a region report. While the chairman refuted the assertion, it has led to further hypothesis that gambling is not the only reason behind the missing money.

Some unsubstantiated claims have indicated that the money was deliberately ‘lost at the casino’ so as to channel the money outside China for Mr. Liu Lirong’s personal use. Allegations from this claims could result to further problems for both the founder and the
company, if there is any proof to confirm them. To avoid liquidation in reference to the case in court, Gionee has recently employed some restructuring expert. The chairman has given some hope that there will be resolution in the
next few years. However, if there is any claims for more recent accusations against Mr. Liu Lirong then there is
every tendency Gionee will be liquidated in order to pay back debtors. It’s more likely that the chairman will be forced to resign, since reorganization of the company seems to be the likely outcome.
