Apple will use all its resources to lift the ban on the Apple Watch!
After facing the ban on the sale of latest generation Apple Watch models in the United Statesby order of the International Trade Commission (ITC), Apple appealed this decision.

Apple is doing everything to resell the Apple Watch
According to a press release published by Reuters, AThe people opposed the decision of the American International Trade Commission and assured that he would take all measures to get the models back on sale.
We strongly disagree with the USITC’s decision and resulting exclusion order, and we are taking all necessary steps to return the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 to customers in the United States. United as soon as possible.
The ban on the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra models was consolidated after the ITC found that Apple had infringed the blood oxygen saturation technology patented by technology company Masimo.
Furthermore, The company confirmed that it is seeking both legal and technical options to resume imports of the most advanced smartwatches.notably by submitting a redesign of the Series 9 and Ultra 2 watches for approval by US customs.
Meanwhile, in today’s filing, Apple’s lawyers claimed that the $3 trillion company, “will suffer irreparable damage” if the models remain off the shelves during legal proceedings.
To date, Apple has removed counterfeit watch models from its online store and Apple Stores. The cheaper Apple Watch SE, which was not part of the decision, remains on sale, but the ban affects the Apple Watch Series 6 and later, as well as all Apple Watch Ultra models.
