Truesight Communications LLC v. Xiaomi Corporation, No. 2:26-cv-01012 (E.D. Tex.), is a patent complaint filed November 6, 2026, in the Marshall Division with a jury demand, against Xiaomi Corporation, Xiaomi H.K. Ltd., Xiaomi Communications Co., Ltd., Xiaomi Inc., Xiaomi Technology Netherlands B.V., and Xiaomi Technology UK Limited. Truesight Communications LLC is a Texas limited liability company with its principal place of business in Marshall, Texas. The complaint describes the defendants, on information and belief, as companies organized in the Cayman Islands, China, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, and England and Wales (paragraphs 2 to 7). It alleges that the defendants have authorized sellers in the district (paragraph 8), alleges on information and belief that their products are also available there through third-party sellers (paragraph 14), and alleges that listings on Amazon.com link to the defendants' official Amazon storefront (paragraph 16). The case is assigned to Judge Rodney Gilstrap.
The patents and accused products
The complaint asserts four patents that Truesight says it owns: U.S. Patent 8,949,879, titled Access Controls for Known Content, issued February 3, 2015; U.S. Patent 8,898,803, titled Content and Identity Delivery System for Portable Playback of Content and Streaming Service Integration, issued November 25, 2014; U.S. Patent 9,595,300, titled Contextual Chapter Navigation, issued March 14, 2017; and U.S. Patent 8,745,749, titled Virtual Secure Digital Card, issued June 3, 2014. The USPTO copies of the patents list the same titles and issue dates.
The accused products are Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO smartphones and tablets, with the Xiaomi 17 as the example in each count, together with a long list of other models the complaint identifies as the Accused Products. Count I asserts at least claim 4 of the '879 patent against content restrictions through Google Family Link and other parental controls (paragraph 36). Count II asserts at least claim 1 of the '803 patent against the Xiaomi 17 with the Netflix mobile application, which the complaint says, on information and belief, comes preloaded on the accused products in its entirety or as a stub (paragraphs 54 and 55 and footnote 5). Count III asserts at least claim 1 of the '300 patent against chapter navigation in the YouTube mobile application, which the complaint says the Xiaomi 17 includes as part of Google Mobile Services (paragraphs 71 and 72). Count IV asserts at least claim 1 of the '749 patent against the Xiaomi 17 equipped with a UFS 4.1 memory module (paragraphs 89 and 90). These mappings are Truesight's allegations.
The counts
Each count alleges direct infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271, induced infringement, and contributory infringement. Truesight alleges, on information and belief, that the defendants' direct infringement includes testing, development, troubleshooting, and other use in the United States, and, in the alternative to knowledge from the complaint, alleges on information and belief that the defendants were willfully blind through a policy of not reviewing the patents of others.
The prayer asks for a judgment of infringement, a permanent injunction under 35 U.S.C. § 283, damages of at least a reasonable royalty with interest and costs, a finding that the case is exceptional with attorneys' fees under § 285, and further relief. Truesight demands a jury trial.
Docket
The docket through November 6, 2026, lists the complaint, the patent/trademark form, a disclosure statement, notices of attorney appearance, requests for summons, summons issued, and the case assignment. The same day, Truesight filed Nos. 2:26-cv-01004, 2:26-cv-01005, 2:26-cv-01006, 2:26-cv-01007, 2:26-cv-01008, and 2:26-cv-01010 (E.D. Tex.), whose complaints assert the same four patents. Truesight also litigated the same four patents in No. 2:23-cv-00643 (E.D. Tex.), which the court dismissed on October 29, 2025.
