Apple Ordered to Pay $184M Interest on Masimo Patent Verdict

A federal judge has ordered Apple to pay an additional $184 million in interest to Masimo, bringing the total cost of a prior patent infringement verdict to approximately $818 million. The ruling stems from a 2025 jury decision that found Apple Watch heart-rate features infringed on Masimo's pulse oximetry patent. While Apple contested the interest award as a windfall, Judge James V. Selna upheld it, though he rejected Masimo's request for a higher interest rate.
