Apple has announced a temporary halt in sales for its flagship smartwatches, the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 in the US. This decision is a response to an International Trade Commission (ITC) ruling in a long-running patent dispute with medical technology firm Masimo.

Apple Watch Ultra tops the charts as the largest wearable yet from Apple. Focused on extreme sports and exploration, the device features a 49mm aerospace titanium case with a flat sapphire crystal face.
