And then a software update may arrive in time
The ban on the sale of Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 smartwatches in the United States came into force on Tuesday, and yesterday it was temporarily suspended.
The pause is valid from December 27, from 21:00 Moscow time, for physical Apple Stores and from 18:00 on December 28 for the Apple website. From now on, the company can sell its latest smartwatch again.
Apple has won a temporary suspension of the ban, at least until US Customs determines whether the changes the company is making to devices will be sufficient to avoid a full ban based on patent infringement. . It is expected that customs will make its decision on January 12, that is, sales will be allowed until then.
Recall that the company has already said that it intends to solve the problem through a software update, although this will be a very difficult task for it. So, in the end, it is likely that the ban will never fully come into force, or its duration will be very short.
