HTC One hit with preliminary injunction in Netherlands over Nokia microphone technology

HTC One hit with preliminary injunction in Netherlands over Nokia microphone technology

It may not be another patent dispute, but that doesn't mean HTC hasn't landed themselves in hot water once again. The manufacturer of one of the best Android devices to date may have unknowingly placed a giant target on their backs with the release of the One. Nokia was granted a preliminary injunction against the HTC One in the Netherlands over its use of a “high-amplitude microphone,” a Nokia owned component. According to Nokia, this technology was to be manufactured exclusively for them by ST Electronics and is a breach of their signed NDA (non-disclosure agreement).
