For the sake of brand development and protection, technology manufacturers often "strike first". No matter where it comes from or what kind of company it is, trademarks and patents are protected without violating public order and good customs. The trademark of "HarmonyOS System" applied for registration by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. this time is 20 19, and the international classification is 42 categories (design research). In 2020, the trademark circulation status changed to rejection and review.
As can be seen from other first-instance administrative judgments of the Intellectual Property Office, the word mark "HarmonyOS System" and the cited trademarks "CRM and Tu" applied by Huawei are easy to cause confusion and misunderstanding among the relevant public, so the disputed trademark and the cited trademark constitute similar trademarks, and the judgment result is to reject the plaintiff Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.' s claim, which means that Huawei lost the trademark lawsuit. No one expected that the trademark "HarmonyOS System" did not completely belong to Huawei!
The trademark "CRM HarmonyOS System and Map" was registered as early as the end of 20 10, but Huawei applied for it eight years later. Similarly, on September 20 1 1, another company registered 42 categories (design research). Even if Huawei wins the case, it will continue to appeal. The two trademarks are the same except for the different fonts. Many netizens said that Huawei knew it was unreasonable. Why is it attractive?
Although HarmonyOS's English trademark looks awkward, Huawei is more convenient to use than "Chinese trademark". It seems that Huawei has not officially used the Chinese name HarmonyOS System. Huawei's self-developed system may be badly sprayed without a Chinese name. If the word "HarmonyOS system" really needs to be changed, what do you think is the appropriate name?
