As a result of the patent dispute, the German government has banned the sale of the phones of the two companies. The Chinese phone manufacturers were in court.
According to WinFuture, a meeting was held with the district court in July of this year in regards to the issue of 5G technology being used by the two companies that are not paying for it. The dispute is about essential patents which are of fundamental importance for the 5G standards.
The district court in Mannheim said in July that a ban would be averted if the two companies could agree on the patents. As of August 5, both Chinese companies in Germany were banned from selling their phones due to a lack of an agreement. Both companies' German websites are no longer carrying any phones.
