The company, which was recently acquired by Apple Inc last month, has managed to eclipse World Cup sponsor Sony, who had been distributing headphones to every athlete free of charge, The Verge said.
Bloomberg said that Apple Inc failed to convince an appeals court in New York to reverse a nonjury trial ruling, which allowed customers of its e-books to pursue claims against the iPad maker over its e-book prices.
Legal experts have said that it is unlikely that Apple Inc could have its latest request to ban the sales of the older models of Samsung Electronics Co phones considering that the judge is the same one who had denied two earlier requests, Bloomberg said.
Tech companies Apple Inc, Google Inc, Intel Corp and Adobe Systems Inc reportedly settled employee antitrust claims for 10th of the original amount intended to be sought by complainants if the case had went to trial.
