Bubble Effect Apple Watch Screen

D
oes
anyone else notice a bubble effect on their Apple Watch screen when in direct sunlight? While turning m
y wrist to check the time I noticed what looked kind of like bubbles or a dent on my screen. I
f
I don’t look at that specific angle it’s unnoticeab
le. This is my new replacement watch I just received from Apple. I have the series 3 42 mm LTE ver
sion and honestly didn’t notice it on my original watch. I decided to check my wife’s series 3 38m
m LTE and I notice it on hers as well. I was thinking it was a defect but if hers has it too it sounds very co
mmon. There’s also 4 vertical lines that can be seen on both our watches if you look at the right an
gle with direct sunlight. Has anyone else noticed
t
his on their watches or have any feedback on this?

HI


If you are concerned about a potential manufacturing defect, then I suggest that you contact Apple Support (mail-in service may be available, if required), make a Genius Bar reservation or visit an Apple Authorised Service Provider with a view to having your watch inspected under warranty:
