US government removed the ban from Apple Watch Series 9

Apple has got relief in America because it has got permission to sell those Apple Watch models which were earlier banned. The reason for this is that Apple had appealed against it in the American court. Let us tell you that at that time the company had won in this decision.

In this, the US appeals court had blocked an order passed by a government commission following a patent dispute with medical-technology firm Masimo. Let us tell you that earlier this week, ITC had banned some models of Apple Watch. Let us know about it.

The US government had banned Apple Watch

The government had ordered a ban on some Apple Watches. For this, he was given 60 days time to bring a veto, after which the final decision was taken not to veto.

The iPhone maker then filed an emergency request with the US Court of Appeals to block the order, which infringed Musimo's patents.

The US government court gave this decision

After this request, the court put a stay on the ban, after which ITC now has time till January 10 to respond to Apple's request.

Apart from this, it has also been decided that the company can resume sales of Series 9 and Ultra 2 smartwatches.

Why was the ban imposed?

ITC bans import and sale of Apple Watches with blood oxygen level monitoring. Let us tell you that Apple had introduced a pulse oximeter feature in its smartwatches starting from its Series 6 model in 2020.

After this, a company named Massimo has accused Apple of hiring their employees. Apart from this, Massimo says that its pulse oximetry technology has been stolen and incorporated into Apple Watches.
