Oppo has a plan to end its global patent fight with Nokia

Oppo and Nokia have been in a 5G patent dispute for over two years. One consequence of the disagreement was Oppo being blocked from selling its devices in Europe. Now, Oppo has urged Nokia to follow the global 5G royalty rates set by a Chinese local court and put an end to their patent-fee feud.

The dispute between the two companies over global licensing fees was taken to the Chongqing First Intermediate People’s Court. The court recently ruled in favour of Oppo, setting lower royalty rates for Nokia’s standard essential patents for 2G to 5G technologies.

Oppo has welcomed the court’s decision, and has agreed to pay $0.707 to $1.151 per unit, depending on different markets.
