The press service told Gazeta.Ru that the court's decision to ban the sale of smartphones in Russia has not yet entered into force and is under appeal.

The company is currently operating as usual.

"Samsung has no plans to change its operating activities," Samsung's press service said.

On October 21, it became known that the Moscow Arbitration Court banned the Russian subsidiary of Samsung Electronics from selling 61 models of Samsung smartphones in Russia due to a dispute over a patent for the payment service Samsung Rau.
