Reason for litigation between Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB и Clearwire Corp. served as the logo of the latter. The Japanese-Swedish company felt that it was too similar to their own.
Companies operate in various market sectors. However, the mobile operator Clearwire recently spoke about plans to introduce a smartphone under his own brand. Sony Ericsson reacted immediately. A mobile phone manufacturer is demanding a ban on the use of such a similar logo. He is also not opposed to some monetary compensation for moral damage.
With some desire, you can really find similarities - they are both round, have white and green colors, as well as swirls. From a distance, a person with poor eyesight can really confuse them. Also, how can he confuse, for example, the logo Sony Ericsson и Quark Inc.
Actions Sony Ericsson caused outright ridicule from the media. Most news sources considered that such a lawsuit is just an attempt to once again attract attention, since it cannot be done with the help of interesting products.
