"US Court Reinstates Ban on Apple Watch Sales with Blood Oxygen Sensor"

The U.S. Court of Appeals has upheld a ban preventing Apple from selling watches with blood oxygen sensors due to an ongoing intellectual property dispute with medical device company Masimo. The ban affects the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2, but Apple may have received approval for a modified version without the blood oxygen feature. Masimo is open to settling with Apple, and the ban could complicate repairs at Apple stores.

The Impending Apple Watch Ban: What You Need to Know

Apple is halting sales of its Watch Ultra 2 and Watch Series 9 due to an order from the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) related to a technical intellectual property dispute. The order is centered around the blood oxygen monitoring feature found in recent Apple Watches. While the ban only applies to Apple itself, retailers with existing inventory can continue selling the affected devices. Apple is pursuing legal and technical options to address the issue and resume sales. President Biden has the authority to veto ITC rulings, but it is uncertain if he will do so in this case. The dispute between Apple and health tech company Masimo, which developed a mobile pulse oximeter, dates back to 2013.
