According to foreign media reports, Apple recently filed a lawsuit against a Chinese-American architect of the former Apple Watch sensor system in the Northern District of California Federal Court, accusing him of systematically stealing a series of core commercial secrets before leaving his job and then switching to OPPO to provide this information to OPPO to develop wearable devices. In response to this matter, the legal department of OPPO stated: "We have noticed the recent lawsuit filed by Apple in California and carefully reviewed the content of the accusations in Apple's complaint. We have not found any facts to prove that these accusations are related to the employee's behavior during his employment at OPPO. OPPO respects the trade secrets of any company, including Apple, and has not violated Apple's trade secrets. OPPO will actively cooperate with the progress of the legal process, and also believe that a fair judicial trial can clarify the facts."
