Beijing Intellectual Property Court makes decision to rescind iPhone 6 sales order

[Global Technology Reporter Wang Huan] “Nihon Keizai Shimbun” reported on March 28th that the Beijing Intellectual Property Court has recently issued a verdict and announced that it has no effect on the sales ban on Apple’s iPhone “iPhone 6”. In May 2016, the Beijing Intellectual Property Office determined that the design of the iPhone 6 resembled that of a Chinese company and ordered Apple to stop selling iPhone 6 models in Beijing. In response, Apple filed a lawsuit in the Beijing Intellectual Property Court. Data map Xinhua News Agency reported the above news on March 27. The court held that the design of the iPhone 6 and other models did not infringe the design rights registered by Chinese companies. Apple continued sales of the mobile phone by applying for administrative reconsideration, so the impact of the ban on sales seems to be limited.
