As we have been following, the Apple managed to temporarily suspend the decision of the United States International Trade Commission (International Trade Commissionor ITC) which banned the sales of Apple Watches Series 9 e Ultra 2 nos USA — but this appeal is about to expire soon, so Apple may have to resort to a “plan B” at any time.
You, however, may be wondering what that plan would be. According to a document [PDF] presented today to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, this would be the disabling blood oxygen measurement features referred models.
The document, seen by 9to5Mac, specifically addresses the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Exclusion Order Enforcement Branch’s approval of Apple’s proposed change. According to the agency, the removal of the oximetry feature would be sufficient to circumvent the infringement of the company’s patents. Fields related to the Watches’ blood oxygen sensor.
It now remains to be seen whether the Court of Appeal will accept the body’s opinion in its final decision, which could resume the ban on sales/imports of new Watches, or turn the tide once and for all on Apple — albeit in a very negative way. for consumers.
Meanwhile, Apple may continue to sell the Apple Watches Series 9 and Ultra 2 in the United States; however, if the Court rules that the feature must be disabled, these devices may not be able to measure user saturation in the US. How this possible blockade will work in practice, however, is still uncertain.
