Big tech company Apple is planning the redesign of some of its Apple Watch models amid the ongoing row with Masimo, a medical technology company based in Southern California, that recently filed a lawsuit against Apple. The Apple Watch will now remove one of its core features due to Masimo's lawsuit. However, the final verdict regarding Masimo vs Apple has not been announced by the US Court of Appeals yet, and a ban on Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 is still on the cards. Masimo had earlier alleged that Apple's blood oxygen measuring feature, which was introduced in Apple Watch Series 6 onwards, has copied its patented technology. The company alleged that Apple used their unique algorithms and light sensor arrangements in their Apple Watch to display similar blood oxygen results.
