APPLE WATCHES BEING PULLED FROM STORES THIS WEEK DUE TO POTENTIAL IMPORT BAN

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Apple is pausing sales of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 starting on December 21. The products are facing a potential import ban until August 2028 as a ruling found that they infringe on patents from Masimo. The case is now under a Presidential Review Period after which the devices will be subject to an import ban if the ruling isn't vetoed. Apple is pursuing a range of legal and technical options to ensure that the Apple Watch remains available.
