The Patent Lawyer Magazine – Lenovo’s Zenbook attack: valid claim or troll move? by Christopher Shrock
Lenovo has sued ASUS TeK in the Northern District of California (23-CV-5892), alleging ASUS’ Zenbook Pro laptop infringes four of Lenovo’s patents. IT message boards have expressed outrage, mostly at the Patent Office, for granting protections on this “familiar” technology. Others see a David-and-Goliath story, with “tiny” Taiwanese ASUS against “giant” Chinese aggressor Lenovo. As usual, the truth is more subtle and mysterious.
