Apple (AAPL) has been ordered to pay Optis Cellular Technology $502M for the use of 4G patents in devices including iPhones and iPads, Reuters’ Sam Tobin reports, citing a ruling by London’s Court of Appeal. Optis filed the suit in 2019 over use of the patents which it said are essential to certain technological standards such as 4G. An Apple spokesperson told Reuters they were “disappointed by this decision and plan to appeal”, adding, “Optis makes no products and their sole business is to sue companies using patents they buy. We will continue to defend against their attempts to extract unreasonable payments.” Reference Link):(https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/apple-must-pay-optis-502-million-lump-sum-uk-patent-dispute-court-rules-2025-05-01/)
