Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has agreed to a deal over patent infringement with headphone maker Koss (NASDAQ:KOSS) the day before the case was set to go to trial.
The settlement, the terms of which were not disclosed, was okayed by Judge Alan Albright of the US District Court for the Western District of Texas on July 23, Bloomberg reported.

In a filing, Apple (AAPL) and Koss said they have "resolved all matters in controversy between them.â
In 2020, Koss alleged that Apple (AAPL) violated five of its patents from its Striva in-ear and over-ear headphones.
Apple (AAPL) shares fell slightly more than 0.5% to $152.96 in early trading on Monday, while Koss (KOSS) gained more than 35%.
Wedbush Securities recently said Apple (AAPL) is likely to meet fiscal third-quarter results, but investors will be looking more at demand, especially with the iPhone 14 getting ready to launch in the fall.
