Why Apple Watch banned in USA

Apple Watch Series 9, Ultra 2 will not be available in Apple Stores anymore. On Thursday, December 21, Apple lost a decisive appeal after the International Trade Commission refused to delay the ban on the sales of the smartwatches

As of today, December 24, 2023, Apple has stopped selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 models in the United States due to a patent dispute over the devices' blood oxygen monitoring technology. Here's what you need to know:

Reason for the ban:

Patent infringement: Medical technology company Masimo claims Apple illegally incorporated Masimo's patented blood oxygen technology in its newer Apple Watch models.
ITC ruling: The US International Trade Commission (ITC) sided with Masimo and issued an import ban on the infringing watch models.
Presidential review: The ITC order is currently under a 60-day presidential review, which ends on December 25, 2023. Apple is hoping the President will veto the ban.
What's currently happening:

Apple stopped selling the affected Watch models online and in retail stores as a precautionary measure.
Existing owners of these models can still use them and receive software updates.
It's unclear if and when the watches will be available for purchase again in the US.
What could happen next:

The President could veto the ban, allowing Apple to resume sales.
Apple could redesign the blood oxygen sensor to avoid infringing on Masimo's patents.
Masimo and Apple could reach a settlement agreement.
Important to note:

This ban only applies to the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 models in the US. Older models with blood oxygen monitoring are not affected.
The situation is still fluid and we may see further developments in the coming days and weeks.
I hope this clarifies the reason for the Apple Watch ban in the US. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.
