  • Sleep apnea in, hypertension out for Apple Watch Series 10

    You guys need to be mindful that the blood oxygen feature is only disabled in the USA. It works everywhere else in the world, and Apple Watches are being sold with the feature today. 
    Thank you! This article is just another example of the US media forgetting the rest of the planet exists!

    Now has it actually been removed from new watches or just disabled for USA? I doubt AppleInsider will be finding out before or after the launch!
    It is only disabled. If Apple gets the go ahead, they can reenable it.

    Apple is more interested in profits than helping their customers lead healthier lives. The licensing fee they would have to pay for O2 levels is a pittance in the overall scheme of finances at Apple. They got caught violating a patent and their ego is preventing them from admitting it which is preventing existing and future customers from the health benefits of monitoring O2 saturation. 
    A) the other company is large, why shouldn’t they just make the patents free to use to save lives?

    B) the other company’s CEO said Apple’s implementation was so flawed that it shouldn’t be used. If it was so flawed, then it wasn’t the same. 

    C) it is likely Apple was charged a large amount. That large amount isn’t coming from Apple. It will come out from consumers buying Apple devices. This means less people will buy these life saving devices.

    Other rumors say that Sleep Apnea will not be in because the blood oxygen sensing is banned still.

    Calling for the apps to be removed from the App Store is no longer going to be effective as there will be multiple app stores.

    I can never figure out why Apple are so stingy with storage, ram and graphics. Providing decent specs, as well as the ability to upgrade and repair, would be such an easy way to further differentiate themselves in the market as an integrated software and hardware company…
    Apple hasn’t needed more ram in phones because how well things run until AI hit. Apple Graphics and CPU are the ones to beat for mobile. For Macs the ASi has made them a serious contender.
