Germany has banned the sale of smartphones of both OnePlus and Oppo brands. The reason for this ban is a case of patent theft. According to wireless tech research and development company InterDigital, Oppo and OnePlus have been accused of using 5G technology without permission.
This is not the first time OnePlus has been banned
Let us tell you that this is not the first time such allegations have been made against OnePlus. About 2 years ago, OnePlus was accused of stealing Nokia’s patent in a similar case. This affected the sales of OnePlus and its sister company Oppo.
The rest of the products including smartwatches will be sold as before
However, once again the sale of OnePlus smartphones has been banned. Let us tell you that this ban has been imposed on smartphones, while OnePlus brand earbuds, smartwatches, tablets will be available for sale as before.
OnePlus issued a statement
Chinese smartphone company OnePlus has issued a statement in this matter, according to which the company is in constant touch with InterDigital and hopes that the matter will be resolved soon, so that smartphone sales can be started again in Germany. OnePlus said that OnePlus follows the rules of high value intellectual property rights. It also follows the rules of patents, which are necessary for the development of the industry. What is a patent?
Patent is a right. The right to patent is given to a person or organization for its innovative technology. In simple words, suppose Samsung has made an AMOLED display, which is the best among other display technologies, then this is Samsung’s own technology, whose patent will be with Samsung. If any other brand wants to use AMOLED technology, then it will have to take permission from Samsung. If it does not do so, then its product can be banned.
Royalty has to be paid
Patent means that no one else can copy its technology. Patent is such a legal right. If you use someone else’s patented technology, you will have to take permission for it. You will also have to pay royalty.
