The related knowledge of Apple Watch replacement of battery

For electronic products, the fastest battery under normal conditions is the built-in battery. Although Apple has not announced the battery capacity of Apple Watch, but from the size of this watch, its battery is certainly not very large. Once the battery is seriously damaged, it means that thousands of dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars of Apple Watch cannot work properly. So can Apple Watch replace the battery?

Fortunately, Apple's answer to us is yes. Apple has already told users through official channels that Apple Watch can replace the battery, but the old rules - official replacement. In the official fine product page, there are several lines of small size rules mentioned, the battery life reduction of 50% or more is covered by the warranty, but did not say the replacement cost after the warranty. If the user relies heavily on Apple Watch in their daily lives, then the problem is that the battery life is likely to be unacceptably shortened after the warranty.

However, the real question is how long Apple's support cycle for Apple Watch is. After all, as long as the user is not too rich and willful, most of the traditional watches can work for many years. I believe no one is willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars for a watch that can only be used for a maximum of two or three years.

When asked about this issue, Apple headquarters employees replied that Apple usually has a seven-year maintenance cycle for "antique grade" products, so Apple Watch's battery replacement is guaranteed for at least this period. Admittedly, replacing the battery does not prevent other accessories from becoming obsolete (although the possibility of processor upgrades is not high), a person who has used an electronic watch for more than seven years will not have much. However, if this watch can only be used as a paperweight at the time, it is also a disappointing thing.

So Apple Watch can replace the battery like all electronic watches, but you can't just find a watchmaker to do the job. The replacement of the Apple Watch battery must be done through Apple's official after-sales department.
