Since 2014 Apple has been maintaining a significant claim with WiLan, a wireless technology development company with a good list of patents in this regard. Apparently, the wireless connectivity of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 7 would use WiLan technology without paying the associated usage rights. In all of this, a company led by Tim Cook was granted a $ 145 million settlement at the time. However, Apple has now received a response to its complaints and the amount due to pay to WiLan for damages caused by its intellectual property amounts to $ 85 million..
According to Bloomberg, a court in San Diego blames Copertino's company for what appears to be a final decision, a matter that almost halted the first court's decision, so we can say that Apple appears to have found the target of the Complaints filed. However, it is not trivial to pay close to $ 100 million to a company with these features and it leaves a lot of doubt in the pipeline, I don't understand how Apple's biggest company can have these "flaws" or if they are actually an unpleasant issue.
However, when we consider that the iPhone 6 reported nearly $ 102,000 and the iPhone 7 reported about $ 150 million, The amount of money that WiLan will receive in this case, is probably not impressive compared to the profits received. At the time, Apple is overwhelmed at the potential launch of the iPhone 9, the iPhone & # 39; most expensive & # 39; that will affect the market throughout the month of March and that will be a real sales success as it happens on its day. IPhone SE.
