  • Apple faces trademark fight over the name 'Vision Pro' in China

    Yes, Huawei has been using the 'Vision' branding for a while now and specifically in AR glasses and smart screens too, so the Apple name does overlap slightly.

    I'm currently interested in a Vision 3 to replace a Samsung TV if it gets a release in Spain. The previous model was available here. 

    We are talking about well known, commercial products (and not all of them are limited to China) so it is hard to believe Apple wasn't well aware of the situation. 

    It's possible that the issue has already been taken into account. 
    There are only a limited set of English words to describe a specific thing. To grant patent of a word to a company is not right. Especially if the word is extended to a family. 
    Yet lots of those limited words are present in trademarks. 

    In this particular case it is Vision Pro and it is taken for exactly the same product category as the Apple Vision Pro. 

    But then again, we used to have 'Apple Computer' and the fight with 'Apple music' . 

    How many different words are there for 'Apple'? 

    I don't disagree with you on the basics but that's how things are. 


    There are General Motors, General Electric, General Instrument, and many more. I think Appel Vision Pro should be good to go as long as Huawei did not have a similar product already in market. 
    Huawei has different eyewear products that range from simple 'smart' eyewear with audio, through to eyewear for AR and for viewing video.

    It also has cameras for TVs for AR related tasks and gesture support. 

    There are also non-eyewear products like AR-HUDs. 

    It's very active in the imaging 'Vision' fields and has been working on XR from both a consumer and industry perspective. 

    Huawei Vision does not have Apple Vision Pro equivalent. Judging from Huawei copycatting Apple products history, it will have one by the end of this year.

    It doesn't need to have an Apple Vision Pro equivalent. 

    There is absolutely no requirement for that but its case is strengthened by the fact that Huawei has been actively working in the AR field for years and with different shipping products. 

    LiDAR, camera technology, gesture technology, AI, display technology, ultra low latency communications, chipsets, battery technology, software. 

    On top of that it is also developing the ICT backend technology to support ubiquitous use of XR. 

    If it trademarked the 'Vision Pro' name for ten years, it's reasonable to assume that a product might appear during that timeframe. 

    As for the copycat claims, did you know that Apple is rumoured to licence almost 800 patents from Huawei, and over the last six years Huawei has pioneered a lot of features that have ended up in Apple products. 

    Well, Apple licensing from Huawei is not a valid defense that Huawei did not copycat Apple products. Visit its product page, you can see that Huawei is trying to fool consumers. MateBook? MatePad? FreeBuds?

  • Apple's live events are probably a thing of the past, and that's sad

    The fact of the truth is I actually enjoyed watching the VP presentation.
