Ion-X glass on Apple Watch 3
Hi,
Does anyone know Apple has decided to use Ion-X glass on all Apple Watch 3 models? As far as I know (I may be mistaken), previous Apple Watch models had sapphire glass and Ion-X was used only for Sports model.
I wear my Apple Watch 3 for just 1 month yet, but they already had several minor scratches that could be seen only under specific angles and lightning, but they still irritated me a lot. Today I've got another set of scratches on my Watch when I've accidentally touched a tile for just a moment, but they look like a really awful result of purposeful contact with a piece of sandpaper or something like that.
Maybe I am being strict in my judgement, but I've been using G-shocks for previous 7 years that haven't suffered any glass scratches at all and I just can't understand how it is possible to use such awful glass in such pretty expensive product as Apple Watch.
I live in Cyprus right now, so there isn't even any way to reach official service centre or Geniuses in Apple Store to issue a glass replacement. I also see that there is no Apple Watch glass replacement coverage in basic Apple Care guarantee program and it isn't a cheap procedure. Apple Watch was one of the reasons I've decided to switch to iPhone from Android devices, but right now I feel terribly upset about buying this product at all (though it is definitely state-of-art gadget) ...
