Apple, Inc. Fires Back at Qualcomm in New Patent Lawsuit
Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) legal battle with Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM) shows no signs of de-escalating, despite Qualcomm CEO Steve Mollenkopf's hopes over the summer that the two companies could settle. Quite the opposite, in fact: The Mac maker has now filed a countersuit against the mobile chip giant alleging that it is infringing on at least eight patents related to battery life.
The patents relate to a smartphone processor's power consumption, and how the processor tries to consume just enough juice necessary, in order to prolong battery life, as well as deactivating different components within the processor when not needed, according to Reuters.
