Together with Motorola, Lenovo will become the third largest producer of smartphones in the world. In the future, Lenovo hopes to circumvent the largest supplier of Apple and Samsung, and to achieve the goal of one company absorbing Motorola is not going to be limited. Lenovo acquired patents related to technology 4G and 3G, Unwired Planet in the amount of $ 100 million.
Lenovo enters into possession of 21 patents, in addition the company will receive a license for the remainder of intellectual property Unwired Planet indefinitely. It is expected that the transaction will close in the next 30 days.
Note that the acquisition of a portfolio of patents from Unwired Planet Lenovo will open the way to development of new regional markets (particularly in North America). Incidentally, Lenovo acquisition of Motorola has brought more than 2,000 patents, also a Chinese manufacturer will have access to a portfolio of Google. All this will help Lenovo to protect themselves from lawsuits by the guardians of patent law.
