Samsung gives home court advantage to Huawei by litigating in ChinaJuly 25, 2016Last week, Samsung Electronics said it sued Huawei Technologies for patent infringements through multiple courts in China. Samsung’s spokeswoman said the company sued Huawei in Beijing court about two weeks ago for allegedly infringing six of its patents. The types of patents and the other Chinese courts involved in the patent litigation were not provided. Back in May, Huawei sued Samsung in the United States and China for infringement of patents that are related to 4G communications technology, operating systems and user interface software. Suing Huawei in China is Samsung’s first patent infringement filing in response to Huawei’s patent suit filed against them earlier. From the outset, Samsung’s decision to fight Huawei in China seems a little bit surprising considering China is regarded as a jurisdiction with weak patent protection rights. Adding the fact Samsung will be facing a well-known local company at its backyard, the task of gaining benefit from this litigation filing seems like a daunting task. Below are the two major reasons on why Samsung chose China as the first jurisdiction to litigate against Huawei despite the obvious challenges.Subscribers Only

Patent landscape in China will design Apple’s regional sales strategyJune 23, 2016Recently, there have been numerous reports on Apple Inc.’s iPhone 6 and 6 Plus receiving an injunction in Beijing last month. The court injunction was given by China's municipal tribunal in response to a design patent infringement compliant filed by a smartphone startup named Shenzhen Baili. Until the news was announced, Shenzhen Baili - and its parent company Digione - were an unknown player in the China’s smartphone space and it seem to fit the profile of a non-practicing entity (NPE) - or colloquially referred to as patent troll. Shortly after the court injunction order, Apple appealed the court order requesting a review of the ruling. Since then, Apple’s appeal to review the ruling has been accepted and Apple will be able to sell its iPhone 6 and 6 plus models in China until the order is reviewed by the Beijing IP court.
