Why did Apple sue Meizu?

Personal opinion: Meizu has robbed Apple's share abroad, and Meizu sells well abroad, especially m9. At that time, there were several versions of firmware, the most famous of which was Czech firmware (only this version of firmware can improve root), which was widely praised, and Apple's usual trick was to sue Meizu's big screen design (for m8) for infringement. In fact, Meizu M8 mobile phone was launched a few weeks after Apple released the iPhone in June 5438+ 10, 2007, which was widely regarded as an imitation of the iPhone by the industry. At the end of 2008, M8 was officially listed, one year before Apple entered the China market. Meizu M8 is accused of being very similar in design to iPhone 3G.

Meizu said that the M8 mobile phone uses Microsoft's CE6 operating system, while Apple's iPhone uses its own operating system, so the two products are different. However, Apple still took legal measures against M8. According to Meizu Company, Apple first negotiated with Meizu Company and asked it to stop producing M8 mobile phones. Later, Apple changed its mind and asked Meizu to stop selling all M8 mobile phones. Later, it was reported that Meizu Company was developing m9.

Huang Xiantao, an intellectual property researcher at Peking University Law School, told reporters that the final decision of taking the M8 off the shelf should be made by the court, and it was not Apple's request. Although Apple filed a lawsuit in the Judicial Department of Guangdong Intellectual Property Office, it could not control Meizu's sales in non-Guangdong areas such as Beijing and Shanghai. Relevant legal persons also pointed out that accusations have become commonplace in the IT industry, and even Apple is often sued in the United States. Intellectual property disputes are the means of enterprise competition and the wrestling of market game, and often go away. (Reference:
