Controversy level
- The European Union's General Court in September 2024 largely upheld a European Commission antitrust fine (set at approximately €238.7 million) against the company for 'predatory pricing', selling its 3G/4G baseband chipsets below cost between 2009 and 2011 to force UK rival Icera out of the market, and the company has faced multiple global antitrust actions (including U.S. Federal Trade Commission litigation and prior fines in Europe, South Korea and China) over its patentlicensing and chipsupply practices.
