China to halt sales of the iPhone 6/6 Plus, says Apple infringed on this phone

Apple iPhone 6 on the left vs Baili 100C on the right
The move comes just as Apple is betting on China as one of the sales hotspots with the most potential for its iPhones, and is a somewhat funny (certainly not for Apple) turn of events, considering the way the US patent system works. Apple, Samsung, and other phone makers are in a constant fight to patent the most diminutive detail or even an idea, so as not to be a subject of such a ban some time in the future. The patent lawyers that work for Apple in Beijing are obviously not up to the task if they have missed the obvious similarities in the Baili 100C, and the iPhone 6 design.
We kid, but the move is just the next in a recent crusade against Apple in China, as the company was also ordered to shut down its iBooks and iTunes Movies services there, lost the rights to the iPhone trademark, and now this. The potential ban on sales of older iPhones in Beijing likely won't affect Apple's bottom line much, as they are soon going to be phased out from production anyway, to make room for the iPhone 7, but still, it may be a harbinger of further such scuffles with Chinese regulators.
