Apple to Modify iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 Circumventing German Injunction Obtained by Qualcomm [Report]

Apple is planning to released a new iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 that circumvent a German injunction obtained by Qualcomm, reports WinFuture via FOSS Patents.

On December 20th, a judge ruled that some iPhones with Intel modems and a chip from Qorvo violated a Qualcomm patent for envelope tracking, a feature that helps smartphones save battery life while sending and receiving wireless signals.

Mike Baker, Qorvo's chief intellectual property counsel, says that U.S. regulators have already ruled that its chips did not violate the U.S. version of Qualcomm's patent and noted that the chip's inventor was not allowed to testify at the German hearing.
