This week,Watch Young Wife Bai Jie Apple will indefinitely pause sales of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 due to a patent dispute.

The ITC ruling, which occurred in October, was sent to the Biden administration for a 60-day review period, which expires on Dec. 25, during which the president can choose to veto the decision.
Just in case, Apple has decided to pull the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 from the shelves. "While the review period will not end until December 25, Apple is preemptively taking steps to comply should the ruling stand," said Apple in a statement to 9to5Mac.
Starting this week, you won't be able to buy the Series 9 and the Ultra 2 directly through Apple. However, the smartwatches won't be completely off the market. Since the ITC ruling only blocks Apple from selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and the Apple Watch Ultra 2, third-party retailers like Best Buy and Amazon are still allowed to sell the devices. That said, the ruling also blocks Apple from importing the Series 9 and Ultra 2 to the U.S., so it could affect inventory of other retailers.

But exactly what Apple plans to do is still unclear, which means there's no concrete timeline for when the company can begin selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 again.
