So feb 2024, just caved and bought the Ultra2 after loosing my 7. To my surprise the oxygen feature is working on my new ultra watch. I ordered it from T-mobile and not apple. Im wondering if its because I had a 7 connected to my phone before too and its inactive or it just was before the change. Hesitant to update and lose the oxygen censor.
Your watch was manufactured before the ban this is all. The technology is permanently disabled in watches ending in lw/a. Watches ending in LL/a are still out there but once they are gone that is it.
A question though.. what happens when it's activated in the USA if I purchase it from abroad.. is it still active or does it deactivate once it's activated in the US region
You can still buy them in the United States with the Blood Oxygen Sensor through third party retailers that still have inventory imported prior to 1/18. Just bought an Ultra 2 from Best Buy that still has the feature. That inventory is going to be out of stock soon, but as of now you can still find them.
Cool! I mentioned that in the previous video, but appreciate your update about this 🙏👍 good to hear that you can still buy it without loosing this feature.
Hi, I think Best Buy may have run out. Do you know where else they are selling these? I can't tell whether or not the one on Amazon has the O2 sensor/app.

Hello, I haven't tested that myself, but I believe it will work. This feature is not blocked by a location so you should be fine.

@@OneByteAcademyOfficialwhat if apple shuts down the feature in the software update? Then what happens?
Won’t happen.
