The Apple Watch was first introduced on September 9, 2014 and was launched on April 24, 2015. The 4th generation is expected in September.

The Apple Watch is very popular. However, this is currently overshadowed by a somewhat strange problem. Apple's computer watch tends to lose its display. A bigger problem is now suspected that may be more widespread than initially thought. In fact, it can happen that the watch's display falls out of the case - any generation of Apple Watch can be affected.

In June of this year, a class action lawsuit was filed against the iGroup. The allegation is that Apple has installed this "special" feature in every previous generation of the computer watch. At the time, the extent of the problem was difficult to estimate. However, reports of displays falling out are now piling up.

voltages in the housing

The reason for this defect could be too high a voltage in the casing. Apple has not yet made a statement on the problem. However, affected customers will receive a high level of goodwill from the iGroup, as long as the display does not show any major damage. It remains to be seen whether Apple will comment on this matter.
