According to Priano - Keyser , her troubles began after she purchase an Apple Watch Series 3 in October 2017 , only to have its screen down off while charging less than a year later on in July 2018 . Priano - Keyser order her girl endeavor to set up the watch by pushing the projection screen back into place . However , because watch ’s body and screen were damaged after the screen was shift by a swollen electric battery , the watch remained unusable . And when Priano - Keyser take aim the vigil to an Apple Store to get it fixed , she claims Apple refused to repair the watch even though it was still under guarantee , and rather charged her $ 229 for an out - of guarantee service fee .
Apple ’s decision not to furbish up the vigil for free may have seemed particularly irk , considering this was n’t the first illustration of swollen battery causing issues for the Apple Watch . Back in 2018 , Applereportedly instituted a policyallowing certain Apple Watch Series 2 owners to substitute their equipment for free after they had been damage by expanding batteries .
Meanwhile , in paying attention to issue with late iPad Pros , it seems an increasing number of drug user on the officialApple support websiteand theMacRumorsforum are run into problems with the tablet ’s screenland , with report of flickering or stuttering displays that do n’t reply correctly to disturb stimulant .
Some users claim that when using the iPad Pro ’s onscreen keyboard , even though the keyboard ’s animation appears to register that a key has been pressed , no letters actually show up on the screen .
Another iPad Pro possessor even made a video recording on YouTube showing those issues in activeness , specifically scream out the hit - or - miss remark detection of the G , H , Y , and T Key .
Currently , it ’s not clear-cut what the author of the problem is , as various users reference issue with iPad Pros made in 2016 , 2017 , and 2018 , with systems tolerate from issues while run unlike adaptation of iOS . And while some users say they have had winner getting faulty iPads replaced , others have n’t been quite so lucky .
If you are suffering from a iPad Pro with a wonky screen , one propose solution for flickering screens on 2018 and 2019 models is to ensure the Apple Pencil 2 is attached attached to the tablet .
