The conflict between the Apple it’s at Fields today gained a new chapter — and a negative one for Maçã. This is because the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit decided to ban the sale of Apple Watches Series 9 e Ultra 2 [PDF] not country.
The suspension of sales will come back into force tomorrow, starting at 2pm Pacific Time (7pm Brasília time). The decision is a response to Apple’s request to continue selling devices with the function — which appears to have had no effect.
The Apple Watches Series 9 and Ultra 2, which have the ability to measure blood oxygen, were already banned from sale at the end of last year. Since 2020, Masimo has accused Apple of illegally using its patents and unfair practices.
To the MacRumorsa Masimo representative said that “Apple’s claim that the version of the devices that does not contain the pulse oximetry function is a positive step toward accountability.”
It is especially important that one of the largest and most powerful companies in the world respects the intellectual property rights of smaller companies and complies with ITC orders when found to be infringing.
It is likely that Apple will sell altered versions of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 without the oximeter, as a way of avoiding the sales ban while continuing with the legal appeal — which might last up to a year, according to company forecasts.
Apple, it is worth remembering, should remove the function from Watches via software. US Customs and Border Protection approved this change — indicating that without the feature, the watches do not infringe on Masimo patents.
