Sales ban confirmed: Two smartphone brands are disappearing from the German market

As previously reported, Oppo had lost a lawsuit once morest Nokia in Germany. That was before the Mannheim district court. Further lawsuits were pending in other German courts, including the Munich 1 District Court.

Now the Munich court has agreed with Nokia on Friday. It is regarding patents related to 4G (LTE) and 5G Standard Essential Patents (SEPs). These are probably being used without permission by Oppo, which prompted Nokia to sue.

The second successful lawsuit is now having a dramatic impact on Oppo in Germany. In fact, there is now a ban on the sale of Oppo smartphones and devices from the sister company OnePlus. And really, on both German sides of the manufacturers you can currently no longer buy smartphones.
