Form follows function, the sooner Nokia and Apple get this the better. Who is paying for all this litigation? We are.

        Nothing but gossip. I know this is a rumor, but usually there is some shred of evidence supporting a rumor. There is nothing here. Useless article.

                  AnonD-49748, 25 Sep 2012Nokia won't do it. Their Lumia 920 flagship is way better a... moreLumia 920 is overweight, so people may consider to get lighter 8X. Maybe Nokia should make 920 and 820 version without wireless charging component to reduce the weight and thickness. Wireless charging means additional magnet and coil hardware.

                      how is the logical use of the os's tile system copying? they don't look exactly the same, it'd be like every android phone maker suing each other for the similarities cased by os peramiters..... madness!

                            Frankly speaking HTC's Windows Phone 8X and Nokia's Lumia 920 and 820 look like clones.

                              there's no way HTC managed to redesign the 8X in the short time between the Lumia 820 announcement and its own event

                              i agree! theres no way htc can copy the design within shortime after launching nokia lumnia smartphone.

                              to tell you: windows phone must have originality of its design like samsung ative which is a windows phone which has a different design than lumia, thats it..htc and lumia are near to be the same almost in all aspects.

                              nokia is not an idiot suing other company without any reason!

                                Nokia won't do it. Their Lumia 920 flagship is way better and the 8X competes with the Lumia 820. This won't course much damage at all

                                  Nokia better save money for future use.

                                      hmm.. i smell than apple will sue nokia for using a patented strategy. it is better to sue and gain than being broke. :)
                                      grow up guys.. if this will become a trend then Michael Jordan should sue NBA players who uses his trademark move - The Fadeaway.. :D

                                        While me and many others thought that it was clearly inspired by Lumias as soon as we saw the new HTC models, I dont like Nokia doing "Apples" by sueing them or going for a ban.

                                        The WP ecosystem needs a lot of phones that are attractive for different audiences and the general increase in WPs marketshare benefits everyone, including Nokia.
