Masimo sues US Customs over Apple Watch blood oxygen return

Masimo alleges the U.S. Customs and Border Protection reversed its prior ban without notice, allowing Apple to re-enable blood oxygen monitoring, which Masimo claims infringes its patents and harms competition.

  • Masimo, a medical technology company, sued U.S. Customs and Border Protection over its decision to allow Apple to import Apple Watches with blood-oxygen reading technology during a patent dispute between the two companies.
  • Masimo claims that Customs improperly reversed its previous decision without notifying Masimo, allowing Apple to reintroduce blood-oxygen reading to its watches.
  • Masimo argues that Customs' decision effectively nullified an International Trade Commission order against Apple, and the company is seeking a court order to block the decision and reinstate the original ruling.
