Today, 21.10.2021/61/2017, the Moscow Arbitration Court, as part of a patent case, banned the sale of XNUMX models of Samsung smartphones sold in Russia since XNUMX and having the Samsung Pay payment system in their functionality.
The ban includes Galaxy Z FFlip, Galaxy Fold, Galaxy Z Fold 2, Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, Galaxy S20 FE, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10 Lite, Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+, Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8+, Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge+, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, Galaxy Note 20, Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy Note 10+ , Galaxy Note 10 Lite, Galaxy Note 9, Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy Note 5,Galaxy A72, Galaxy A52, Galaxy A32, Galaxy A41, Galaxy A71, Galaxy A51, Galaxy A80, Galaxy A70, Galaxy A50 (128GB), Galaxy A40, Galaxy A31, Galaxy A30s, Galaxy A30, Galaxy A50 (64GB), Galaxy A20, Galaxy A9 (2018), Galaxy A7 (2018), Galaxy A8, Galaxy A8+, Galaxy A6, Galaxy A6+, Galaxy A7 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017), Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy A7 (2016), Galaxy A5 (2016), Galaxy J6+, Galaxy J4+, Galaxy J7, Galaxy J5 (2017).
The reason for this decision was the complaint of the Swiss company Sqwin SA. She owns a patent for an invention protected by a Russian patent "Electronic Payment System". At the same time, earlier in July, the Moscow Arbitration Court banned the sale of Samsung smartphones that implement the Samsung Pay system, but did not specify the models. The new solution eliminates this uncertainty. However, the Korean company appealed against the verdict, so it has not yet entered into force.
