Samsung stole the idea of the modern smartphone as we know it today from Apple iPhone.
Not entirely true, Best Buy and other places can still sell Series 9 and Ultra 2
Imagine not understanding a thing about patent law and taking things at face value. In the technology world there are many patents that should not have eeven been allowed to register. Since its a dispute it doesnt mean its a valid claim or not. Thats up to courts and lawyers. Apple didnt invent the smartphone. They just made something far better than what existed. Thats the way to do it. You do not have to invent everything. There were smart watches before Apple. Apple made the best commercially available one. If you knew they stole from Samsung then why didnt they makde a case? Your concept of stole is like others. Again face value, a theory.

Maybe apple will start selling subscription for the O2 sensor. $5 a month to activate with the $5 going to Masimo.

I despise patent trolls but despise patent theft even more. A lot of work goes into obtaining a medical device patent.

No company should rip off a patent without paying proper $ especially a billion dollar company who won't even put the wall wart in the box to charge your devices.

There are literally thousands of patents tied up in every high tech device like apple watch or iPhone. The issue is licensing these days, not exclusivity. It's frowned on to sue for a patent that the holder couldn't actually develop themselves. An idea is one thing, but making it work is quite another. Withholding useful, affordable tech is never a good policy. Fair distribution of tech development is tricky, and knowledgable fair consortium arbitration is probably the best way to manage it.
But please with the phone chargers. If I had a penny for every one not used I'd retire on a yacht. My household probably has a dozen floating around. Think sustainably for the earth's future. If you need one, buy the damn thing for a buck. If you want performance, spend the $20 I'd rather not have added to the price of my device.

I used to work for a venture capital funded startup biotech company. I put years of hard work developing devices and algorithms. No company should just be able to use my patents without approval and agreed upon cost. Regardless if one can develop themselves they didn't and weren't first to it. Without small companies like mine, we would still be in the dark ages. Companies like mine force big companies to maintain research labs.

Unlike you I don't have tons of charging blocks available. Especially when the entire family switched from android to iphone. Think sustainability yet apple will gladly sell you a charging block in it's own box. SMH!

Windows phone enabled palm pilots and blackberries were around years before the iPhone ever existed.

This is not a good deal. 25% off of a watch where the chip has no neural engine and is way older. I think a reasonable price to pay for an Ultra 1 is no more than half retail - or $400.

This has the same Oxygen sensing tech that Apple is being sued for.

Mine arrived, wow, what an upgrade over the series 7 cellular model. Already less need to pick up my phone during the day since the screen is so large and bright/vibrant. wish this one came with the Trail Loop as velcro easier to adjust while running or moving. I can always get it later.

Samsung didnt poach employees from Apple and attempt to buy Apple.
Thats what Apple did since 2013, poaching Massimo's employee since and tried to acquire.
(Btw Massimo is a massive hospital tech company, not a patent troll)
