Nokia and Apple’s new patent license comes without any extra drama (this time).
Apple sued Nokia in 2009 for attempting to copy the iPhone as Nokia sued Apple for copyright violations. They settled in 2011. Then in 2016, they filed competing lawsuits again before reaching a deal that brought Withings products back to the Apple Store and included an up-front payment to Nokia of $2 billion.
Today Nokia announced a new agreement covering 5G and other tech to replace the last one, which was due to expire at the end of this year.
Nokia will “receive payments from Apple for a multi-year period.”
