.
The French company claimed that the Chinese technology giant had filed in 2017 a logo too similar to its own.
The symbol in question is an H drawn by two C vertically, while that of the French mark represents two interlocking horizontal Cs.
Two years ago, Chanel sued Huawei for the first time.
The European Union Intellectual Property Office then rejected the French trademark application.
The latter then appealed to the European court.
Logos judged to be quite different
Judges on Wednesday similarly pointed out two years ago that the logos had differences "significant" enough that the public would not confuse them.
"Chanel's features have more rounded curves, thicker lines and a horizontal orientation," analyzed the judges, who however admitted certain "similarities" between the two logos.
The French company may possibly lodge a new appeal, this time with the European Court of Justice.
At the end of this decision, the brand made no comment and has so far not indicated whether it wished to take up this new appeal procedure.
