The UK consumer group Which? began a 12-day liability trial at the Competition Appeal Tribunal over claims that Qualcomm's licensing practices inflated what 29 million Britons paid for Apple and Samsung phones.

Which? and Qualcomm signed a 'drop hands' settlement ending its UK class action, valued at about GBP 482.5 million, with no money for consumers, and jointly asked the Competition Appeal Tribunal to approve it.

The Competition Appeal Tribunal approved a settlement that ends Which?'s GBP 480 million class action against Qualcomm with no payment, finding the claim no longer had a realistic prospect of success.
