TAIPEI, TAIWAN — HTC and Apple have been battling over patents. According to Cher Wang, chairperson of HTC, despite Samsung's recent lawsuit loss, HTC does not have any intentions to settle.
Apple's iOS and Google's Android have been fighting a patent war. HTC's patent lawsuits with Apple have been a center of attention as well. Wang noted that HTC has great skills in innovation and has the confidence to face legal lawsuits with Apple. Samsung's loss, added Wang, does not mean the failure of the entire Google Android ecosystem.
As for market conditions in 2012, Wang noted that Taiwan needs to increase efforts and believes the future will get better. HTC is likely to introduce at least three new models before September, including HTC One X+ with a 5-inch touch screen and support for 4G LTE.
