Apple went to great lengths to keep the “Dynamic Island” a secret from trademark sleuths.
According to a tweet from Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, the tech giant, which announced the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro this week, filed the trademark in Jamaica because of its unusual laws. Why did Apple make this curiously extreme move? Well, in order to search for trademarks filed in the Caribbean island, you must physically visit the country’s trademark and patent office, said Gurman.
Apple has now trademarked it in New Zealand, which is searchable online, and the trademark application discloses that Apple reserved the name earlier in Jamaica in July. Details on the process here: https://t.co/xuppxXIhHa
