高通公司拿來告蘋果公司與英特爾公司的非標準關鍵專利，都被各國法院判定為無效了，包括那個得到德國地院頒發iPhone7/8/X禁售令的專利，European Patent EP2724461 on a low-voltage power-efficient envelope tracker，今天也被歐洲專利局撤銷了（可異議）。我說蘋果公司一定在後悔自己太早跟高通公司和解了。
「"Once Apple started purchasing modem chips from Intel, Apple challenged Qualcomm’s royalty rates, as Tony Blevins (Apple Vice President of Procurement) testified at trial: 'There are court proceedings where we’re trying to establish what is a FRAND rate for royalty.' [...] In response, according to Blevins, Qualcomm sought patent injunctions around the world against Apple’s handsets: '[T]hey had filed injunctions against Apple and lawsuits on non-SEPs, again, to improve their position . . . on the SEPs.' [...]"」
遲來的正義，蘋果公司一定在後悔它與高通公司的和解協議簽太快。
美國聯邦貿易委員會在北加州聯邦地方法院告贏高通公司，而且是全面性的大勝。
「The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) of the United States has won the first round of litigation against Qualcomm. Judge Lucy H. Koh of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California has just found that the San Diego-based chipset maker violated the FTC Act, and has ordered the following remedies:
(1) Qualcomm must not condition the supply of modem chips on a customer’s patent license status and Qualcomm must negotiate or renegotiate license terms with customers in good faith under conditions free from the threat of lack of access to or discriminatory provision of modem chip supply or associated technical support or access to software.
(2) Qualcomm must make exhaustive SEP licenses available to modem-chip suppliers on fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory ("FRAND") terms and to submit, as necessary, to arbitral or judicial dispute resolution to determine such terms.
(3) Qualcomm may not enter express or de facto exclusive dealing agreements for the supply of modem chips.
(4) Qualcomm may not interfere with the ability of any customer to communicate with a government agency about a potential law enforcement or regulatory matter.
(5) In order to ensure Qualcomm's compliance with the above remedies, the Court orders Qualcomm to submit to compliance and monitoring procedures for a period of seven (7) years. Specifically, Qualcomm shall report to the FTC on an annual basis Qualcomm’s compliance with the above remedies ordered by the Court.」
