Apple is thinking about removing the blood-oxygen feature from its Series 9 and Ultra 2 smartwatches to dodge a potential US ban if an appeal doesn't go their way. This information comes from Masimo, the company that has been at odds with Apple over patents related to this technology. On January 12, US Customs and Border Protection gave the approval for Apple's redesign, stating that it doesn't fall under the import ban imposed by the US International Trade Commission (ITC).
