China banned Apple
Chip maker Qualcomm claims to have won an injunction against Apple, which effectively prohibits the import of a number of iPhone models, from iPhone 6S to iPhone X.
The preliminary order issued by the Chinese court is the final step in the ongoing feud between the two technical giants over intellectual property.
However, Apple claims that all its iPhone models remain on sale in the country.

Disputed patents relate to software, not to hardware.
This prohibition applies to devices running older versions of the Apple operating system from iOS, but not to devices with the latest version of iOS 12.
The court found that Apple had violated two Qualcomm patents - one concerned with resizing photos, and the other controlling applications on the touch screen.
"Apple continues to capitalize on our intellectual property, while at the same time refusing to pay us," said Don Rosenberg, Qualcomm's general counsel.
However, Apple responded that the ban attempt was "another desperate step on the part of a company whose illegal actions are being investigated by regulators around the world."
The company added that it will use all legal options in court.
PS: Most likely, this is a response to the arrest of the Chinese billionaire’s daughter and owner of Huawei in Canada, see “Five Eyes” vs. Huawei’s 5G: How the West Fights with China for Hegemony in Technology .
