"Apple CEO Tim Cook Vows to Fight Apple Watch Ban Over Masimo Patents"

Apple CEO Tim Cook stated that the company is focused on appealing the Apple Watch ban and not interested in settling with Masimo over the contested blood oxygen feature, despite the ongoing patent battle. The Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 are still being sold in the US with the blood oxygen feature disabled, and Cook emphasized that there are other reasons to buy the watch. Masimo CEO Joe Kiani has expressed openness to a settlement, but Apple has not engaged in serious discussions. Despite the ban, the watches can still be purchased from third-party retailers with the blood oxygen app and features intact.

"US Court Orders Temporary Halt to Apple Watch Sales Due to Blood Oxygen Sensor"

The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has denied extending an interim stay on the Apple Watch ban, requiring Apple to stop selling certain models with blood oxygen technology. Apple may have to remove the feature to resume sales, as US Customs and Border Protection has approved a measure to do so. The ban stems from a patent battle with Masimo, and despite a temporary lift last month, the ban is set to go back into effect on January 18th.
