Earlier this month, Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus stopped sales in India after a New Delhi court upheld a complaint by rival Micromax. Now the ban has been lifted and OnePlus will be able to start importing and selling devices again. At the heart of the issue is the Cyanogen operating system, which the OnePlus One uses in all countries outside of China.
OnePlus’ plans for world conquest hit a roadblock when Micromax had the company’s smartphones banned in India. It’s reasoning was that they allegedly infringed on its exclusive right to use Cyanogen’s custom Android software. However, it looks like the little phone maker that could is getting a reprieve — Delhi’s High Court has lifted the preliminary injunction that kicked OnePlus out of the country. The bench argues that this early ban wasn’t necessary, since neither company really “eats into the the territory of the other.” That makes sense: Micromax mostly caters to the low end of the market, while OnePlus is further up the ladder.
