Huawei reportedly dragged Shenzhen Transsion Holdings to court over complaints of intellectual property theft. Manufacturers of Infinix, Itel and Tecno were fired into the process shortly after they debuted in the STAR (Nasdaq Shanghai Stock Exchange). The lawsuit was taken to a local court in Shenzhen, China.
Although Transsion Holdings smartphones are very popular in Africa and products like Infinix, Itel and Tecno are sold for millions, the company does not have many patents. The company has only 630 patents and 286 copyrights to its name in China. For its part, Huawei has over 100,000 patents.
