Apple Watch Series 8 - Measurement Suspended Issue

Hi All,

I recently bought Series 8's. However the noise app (and also Siri & dictation) both pop up with a "Measurement Suspended" (see attached) message. It's as if the mic is being used by another app, we've closed all apps on the watches, rebooted them, updated them to the latest Watch OS (iPhone 14's pro also both updated to 16.0.1) but no success. If this is a software issue please fix it soon. Otherwise I will sadly need to return the product. Thanks in advance.

UPDATE. It has been 5 days with the replacement watch without any mic issue. Everything is working fine all the time. Better to have a replacement done quickly because they will not argue at all. Just get there explain the issue and done. You get a new watch.

My series 8 has been working fine since the latest update. Hopefully it continues this way 🤞

Went to the store today with the same problem. They confirmed it has now been a known issue that Apple has acknowledged. They won't replace the watch or take it for repairs with this issue anymore but there should be an update that fixes soon.
