Apple is applying for iWatch trademark

Russian media Lzvestia revealed that Apple has submitted a patent application to the Russian side and hopes to acquire the iWatch trademark. This move shows that Apple does have plans to launch iWatch smart watches. Whether or not this name will be used by Apple. The iWatch name clearly has the style of Apple products. If you lose the trademark, it will cause great trouble in the future.

However, the reporter did not find an application from Apple on the Russian Federation’s intellectual property service website.

Previously, Apple had purchased iPad trademark patents in the United Kingdom. In order to obtain a more favorable price, Apple has registered a special vest company responsible for negotiating with the owner of the iPad trademark and completing the transfer of intellectual property. "iPad" was previously referred to as "IP Application Development Limited" in this British company.

King Securities analyst Guo Mingchi (Ming-ChiKuo) analyzed that the parts of Apple's smart watch are not yet mature, and iWatch will be put into operation in the second half of next year. In addition to parts and components, Guo Mingchi believes that Apple's existing iOS system does not support smart watches very well. Perhaps in the iOS 7 operating system, Apple will improve and improve iWatch.

Guo Mingchi also speculated that Apple iWatch smart watches will be equipped with a 1.5 to 2 inch display; and will use the security vendor AuthenTec's fingerprint recognition technology, Apple in 2012 spent 356 million US dollars to acquire the company.
