"Ultimate Guide to the Apple Watch Ban: Key Facts and Updates"

The Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 are facing an ITC situation due to patent infringement, resulting in a ban on their sale in the United States. Apple is still selling the devices with the blood oxygen features disabled, and third-party retailers continue to offer them with the features intact. The ITC's decision has led to a series of legal maneuvers and appeals from Apple, including a redesign and a software update to address the issue. The situation remains ongoing, with the US appeals court temporarily halting the ban, while the Biden administration upholds the ITC's ruling.
