Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “IPHONE” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California. It covers a range of electrical and scientific apparatus, including handheld mobile digital electronic devices for telephone calls, electronic mail, digital data, audio playback, and handheld computers, as well as handheld electronic game units and a broad set of communication services such as telecommunication access, data transmission, and delivery of audio and video files. A similar name would raise the closest concern in these areas, especially for mobile devices, digital media players, or related communication services. The record does not give Apple control over every use of the word “iPhone” in unrelated contexts. No enforcement activity—oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is visible in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the renewal on June 21, 2022, and the next relevant date would be the next renewal deadline, which is not provided. For someone looking to use a similar name, the presence of this active, broad‑scope registration suggests a significant risk of conflict in the listed goods and services.
