Nokia to sue HTC for the design of HTC WP 8X
Nokia has decided to follow the footsteps of Apple and the struggle with competitors not only by the issue of new models, but also by prohibiting sales of similar vehicles. The first suspect in copying the design Nokia hit Taiwanese HTC.The essence of the claim is that the HTC Windows Phone 8X very similar to the Nokia Lumia 820, especially when you look at both units at the front. Finns showed their smartphones at the beginning of September, and the NTS only two weeks later. Despite the fact that he had repeatedly said that all smartphones with Windows Phone fairly similar to each other, not only within, but also outside, vice president of Nokia sales and marketing tweeted: "One repetition of color will not be enough to balance innovation Lumia 920 »(It takes more than matching color to match the innovation of the Lumia 920). now reportedly in Nokia apparently considered that not only the color in common smartphone and decided to seek a complete ban sales of HTC WP 8X. It should be noted that due to the nature of the approach Microsoft to limit the ability of manufacturers of smartphones WP8, technical specifications of all devices, regardless of brand will be very close. In addition, HTC and Nokia have received and get a lot of support on the part of Microsoft, and Qualcomm in the development of smart phones based on the OS WP8. And Nokia will have to make really hard, proving that HTC copied the design in two weeks, or provide evidence that the leak had previously.
