Apple is being sued for infringing patents regarding the wireless charging technology found on the iPhone. The lawsuit has been filed by a South Korean multinational firm by the name of LS Cable & System for patent 'US8013568'.
LS Cable & System registered the patent in 2011 and says that multiple Apple products including the iPhone and AirPods have infringed on it. The company says that Apple infringed on its patent after the AirPower wireless charging pad was cancelled due to overheating issues in 2017.
LS Cable & System has been sending Apple warnings since 2019 and says that they have all gone unheard. Apple's dismissive attitude either means that it believes it has nothing to fear or it truly thinks itself to be beyond legal action. The lawsuit will hopefully make things clearer sooner rather than later.
