Apple has filed an appeal to overturn a broad iPhone sales ban in China, the company told CNBC Monday.

The ban of some iPhone models, announced earlier Monday, follows a request for injunction by Qualcomm, which has been locked in a legal battle with Apple for years. The chipmaker is alleging patent violations on features that lets users reformat the size and appearance of photos and manage applications on a touchscreen when navigating through phone apps.
