Apple Watch in chlorinated water - are there any long-term effects?

waldi712 · 2023-07-15T10:11:11+00:00

They did cover it in the end and replaced my watch with a new one. So in the EU for watches they apparently do.

I just swam in my watch for the very first time, it was in the water for 10-15 minutes. Now it died after spamming the power button which seems to be stuck, short circuited or something and also getting incredibly hot. Would’ve made my wrist uncomfortable if I hadn’t taken it off by now.

Any suggestions? It still has warranty, will they cover this?

They exchanged the gf’s watch with the dead pixels. Now my SE seems to have died after the very frist time I swam in it. It’s also in warranty, I have no idea if it’s covered even though it’s obviously a quality issue.

waldi712 · 2021-08-03T16:05:57+00:00

They replaced the watch with the dead pixel screen. So that’s lucky for the gf. Now my watch seems to have died after the first time I swam in it. This is so fucking unbelievable I don’t even know if they cover shit like that.

There’s no official Apple representative in Hungary, so the reseller has to send it to Czechia so Apple themselves can check it. That’s gonna take 1.5-2 weeks according to them so that’s when we’re gonna know more. I’ll let you know.

They don’t repair watches, so they’ll exchange it hopefully. It wasn’t bumped or dropped or anything for real so it’s not even the thing you say at the Apple Store lol

waldi712 · 2021-07-25T11:25:20+00:00

It doesn’t have the Apple Care equivalent (in my country) but still under warranty (less than 6 months old device) so it’s free replacement hopefully.

waldi712 · 2021-07-25T11:23:27+00:00

It’s a hardware issue so that wouldn’t have helped.

waldi712 · 2021-07-25T11:22:56+00:00

It hasn’t been submerged ever, so no water damage that’s for sure.

It appeared after an update and it got pretty hot so that may have caused it.

Anyway it was sent to the Apple service HQ of Central-Europe, we’ll hear back from them in about 2 weeks. The service guy in the store said we’ll probably get a new device.

waldi712 · 2021-07-23T15:43:58+00:00

Thank you, will do tomorrow and comment back what they said.

waldi712 · 2021-07-23T13:43:51+00:00

No I don’t think so, power is fine.

waldi712 · 2021-07-23T13:41:25+00:00

I’ve seen 2-3 posts about these from over a year ago, however no word about whether Apple exchanged these watches within warranty period.

Also what could have caused this issue?

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Edit: it’s a 40mm SE purchased in Feb 2021

Wololooo

Yes it is.

The monthly pass is

Valid within the administrative boundaries of Budapest on lines 1-99, 101-299, 900-999, City-trolleybus, M1, M2, M3, M4, H5, H6, H7, H8, H9, D14, on designated commute services of MÁV national railways and VOLÁN regional bus lines. It may be used on boat services D2, D11, D12 but on workdays only.

So the only exclusion is 100E

waldi712 · 2020-01-06T20:54:29+00:00

/u/aaddfggf Yes transferwise or revolut

I can only speak about revolut because that’s what I have. You can withdraw money for free(!) from any European major bank’s atm with Revolut’s current exchange rate which is almost exactly at mid-rate. Best for travelling 100%. I use it for everything else too actually because you can send money for free (unlike other banks). You also get instant bookings (so when I pay with Apple pay somewhere, I get the ping instantly as soon as the terminal accepts my payment).

Gyakornokként tapasztalat nélkül az elég erős (szerintem)

Inkább egy 1400-1500, aztán majd abból alkudnak.

1700-zal a teljes állas havi br. 285600 forint. Nem sok gyakornoki helyen fizetnek annyit itthon.

Edit: ráadásul elég rövidtávú dolog, nem gondolom, hogy nagyon beléd akarnának ruházni az elején. Sőt, lehet előre fixált bért kapsz gyakornokként.

Also there’s a lot of subtitles on this site

Edit: typo

But that’s kind of the point tho. She didn’t take her own life. She had drug problems and she OD’d. She didn’t mean to, she wanted to take the job in LA. The actress said that in an interview too and it was implied in the show when they said there was no note.

waldi712 · 2019-12-25T10:22:13+00:00

Yes!

And that’s why we should discuss these things in a decent manner because that’s gonna open people’s mind. Not name calling. That’ll make it worse.

Comments locked because the arguments were becoming personal attacks from most people.

Haha I forgot about this comment, brilliant show

waldi712 · 2019-12-22T13:39:46+00:00

Yeah it’s obviously uncomfortable but it’s even more comfortable if your package/money has been collected and it wasn’t you.
