Apple ordered to pay $5.7 billion over haptics patent case

Original: Apple owes Taction Technology $5.7 billion over iPhone and Watch haptics

Apple owes $5.7 billion to Taction Technology after a patent ruling concerning haptic feedback technology used in the iPhone and Apple Watch. The decision puts a spotlight on Apple's long-running legal disputes over components built into its most popular devices, and raises questions about whether Apple will appeal or seek a licensing deal.

Why now: A massive damages award against one of the world's biggest companies naturally draws broad attention.
