Render of the Vivo X Fold 2
The press release was released in German and we used Google Translate to get the above English translation. A decision by the District Court of Mannheim was entered against Vivo leading the company to say that it is willing to suspend all operations, including the sales and marketing of its devices, in Germany. First, though, the company will file an appeal against the court’s decision and get Nokia to sit down with it in an attempt to get the company to license its patent on FRAND terms.
Vivo is one of the many phone brands owned by China’s BBK Electronics including Oppo, OnePlus, Realme, and iQOO. Last August, OnePlus and Oppo had to stop phone sales in Germany after Nokia sued the pair over the use of 5G technology.
