Apple ordered to stop sales of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in Beijing

Beijing’s intellectual property regulator has ordered Apple Inc. AAPL, -1.19% to stop sales of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in the city, ruling that the design is too similar to a Chinese phone, in another setback for the company in a key overseas market.
It wasn’t immediately clear what impact the order would have. Some mobile-phone stores in the city said they had already stopped selling the two models months ago, switching to newer models. Apple will soon end production of both models, according to a person familiar with the production plans.
The two iPhone models infringe on a Chinese patent for exterior design held by Shenzhen Baili for its 100C smartphone, the Beijing Intellectual Property Bureau wrote in a statement on its website dated May 19.
It is the latest challenge for Apple in China, its largest market outside of the U.S. Falling iPhone sales in China was a major factor in Apple posting its first quarterly decline in revenue in 13 years in April. China also shut down Apple’s iBooks and iTunes Movies services that month, with regulators telling the company it didn’t have the necessary licenses, according to people familiar with the matter.
China woes continue.

china is such a POS as a country its not even funny. They literally have no innovation and just copy everything from everyone. There is no defense of any IP or patents. Its nice to see their whole market tanking bc it really is a giant POS nation.
It cracks me to see china complaining about stolen intellectual proeprty
Trump is dead on about china and this is seriously a joke.We have to respond to their IP but they do nothing but steal our IP??? This is a bizzaro world if you look at chinese tech companies and their origins. The big ones are smart, they set up in silicon valley and just steal engineers from the big companies.

Totally agree. China has zero originality. It's not a big surprise when most of their country has essentially been copying and mass producing for generations. (Factories)
