FULL STORY ======================================================================

Apple has announced in a statement to 9to5Mac that the company will stop selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 in the US from
Apples website in after 3pm ET on December 21, 2023. You will still be able
to but it in-store until December 24, but then physical sales will end too.

Yes it'll completely halt sales of the best Apple Watches in the week right before Christmas. It's the result of a patent battle between Apple and a company called Masimo over the blood oxygen sensor in the Apple Watch, which has resulted in a ruling from the International Trade Commission against Apple, leading to this ban though Apple is not out of ways to appeal yet .

However, it may not help that Apple also lost a patent ruling fight with a company named AliveCor which also hangs over this whole affair.
