Why can Samsung & MediaTek & Huawei get around Qualcomm 5G modem patents - yet Apple can't?
This is a serious question, for adults only, which is why the Apple ng's aren't on it (the iKooks blame everyone but Apple, for example).
How can Qualcomm & MediaTek (and in some says, Huawei) get around Qualcomm
5G modem patents - and Apple can't?Intelligent people use adult cognitive skills to assess disjoint facts.
FACT #1: Someone posted a Supreme Court decision this week that Apple lost where Apple argued the Qualcomm patents expiring in 2029 were holding them back.
FACT #2: Later this week, Ming-Chi Kuo published investor advice saying, literally, Apple "failed" at making a 5G modem (hence Qualcomm stock rose appreciably).
FACT #3: In response to Ming-Chi Kuo, known Apple defenders publish clarifications that it's not a "failure to design", but just a "failure to deliver".
OK. Fair enough. a. Apple tells the Supreme Court Qualcomm 5G patents are holding them back b. This week, Apple loses that bid to nullify those 5G modem patents c. Soon thereafter, Ming-Chi Kuo reports Apple "failed" on their 5G modem c. Yet patent insiders say it's only the patents holding Apple design up
What do you make of these disjoint facts, coupled with the facts that: A. Samsung makes 5G modems B. MediaTek makes 5G modems C. Huawei makes 5G modems
How do _they_ get around those Qualcomm 5G modem patents then?
Adults need to put disjoint facts together until it all makes sense. Hence... the obvious question to ask is...
How can Samsung & MediaTek (& perhaps Huawei also) get around those two Qualcomm 5G modem patents which expire in 2029 - yet Apple can't?
