On March 29, it was reported by foreign media that Apple and Qualcomm would have a court battle in San Diego on April 15 local time. Apple and its partners were suing Qualcomm. Foxconn, Compal, Hoasus, Wistron and other iPhone manufacturers claimed that Qualcomm had violated the antitrust law and a number of contracts by claiming that Qualcomm had paid a compensation of $27 billion.

Why did they get involved in this dispute? Because these manufacturers used Qualcomm patents for Apple, and Apple and Qualcomm are seeking compensation, the trial is planned to last 20 days.

Qualcomm has the transfer patents of most smart phones, as well as related technologies of 3G, 4G and 5G networks, which does not include the patents of its chips. Apple asked its partners to stop paying royalties to Qualcomm, and other lawsuits claimed that Qualcomm failed to grant its key patents in a fair, reasonable and non discriminatory manner as required. These patents must be recognized by mobile phone manufacturers to ensure that products meet technical standards.

Apple and other mobile phone manufacturers are dissatisfied with Qualcomm's "no license, no chip" policy. These manufacturers say they are paying royalties to Qualcomm, but the phones they sell do not use any of Qualcomm's patents. US $27 billion is about RMB 181.537 billion, which is a huge sum. Do you think Qualcomm will eventually compensate so much?
