Apple Watches Series 3: Display Faults on Some GPS Models



It has been found that bands appear on the edges of certain Apple Watches, which may be reminiscent of a defect in series production of these connected watches.
In an internal memo distributed to Genius Bars and authorized retailers of the brand, Apple said the problem should be treated like any other Apple Watch repair. Since the problem appears to be a manufacturing defect, the repair must be free under Apple's one-year limited warranty policy.

This Apple memo identifies GPS models as being affected and not cellular models. The difference could be explained by the fact that LTE models have a different display system with an integrated antenna.

To verify the problem when you visit the After Sales Service, the technician at a Genius Bar or an authorized Apple dealer will have to ask the customer to rub his finger on the screen to check for the appearance of these spots. If no line appears on the border, the technician will be instructed to clean the screen and ask the customer to blow hot on the edge of the screen to create moisture.
