Just for your info. I chatted with an Apple specialist yesterday. He told me the ECG feature is pending approval by the local authorities here and once approved can be easily enabled with a software update. I see this as a positive sign. At least, Apple has already submitted an approval request. :) So it is definitely coming.

I know of this info last Friday when I chatted with one of the staff. I thought is better to withhold this information first because nothing is confirmed. Since you have mentioned it, yeah, it seemed like SG governing bodies are looking into it right now. The future of the ECG feature lies in the hands of HSA now.

If battery replacement for out of warranty Apple Watch, I believe it is still paying for just the battery replacement cost. I have a very old iPhone 5S that got battery replacement recently. A new (refurbished) unit is issued for just the battery cost.

Perhaps if battery issue then might just be battery cost. Recently when I went Apple Store a second time in 4 days, for persistant battery drain on my 7 Plus despite battery change, Apple replaced the whole 7 Plus unit with a $491 cost after deducting the $38 which I paid earlier on.

They have introduced 4 new watch faces 😀

The Series 4 have their own infograph watch faces while Series 3 LTE have the explorer watch face. With this new watchOS 5, my Series 3 LTE gained the new vapor, liquid metal, breathe and fire/water watch faces. Honestly, not too excited on the new faces.

So they simply replace the entire unit because they do not know what is wrong with your phone? :s11:

Yes. Initially, phone suddenly cannot turn on due to empty batt. Then I recharged it and after charging to full constantly drop at standby, even drains when it’s turned off. So I suspected might be battery issue and did full iPHone restore 3 times to no avail.

So brought it to Apple Store lor and they ran diagnostics, found no issues with battery but I requested for battery replacement anyway. After replacement also same issue and they told me only solution is to replace whole unit. :s22:

I suspect might be motherboard, since battery’s ok.

If I were you, I’d change to Series 4. For me, my Series 3 LTE is only 6.5 mths old but thinking of changing to Series 4, mainly because of larger screen and new watch face as I love having lots of information on my main screen. Holding back now as the standard 44mm SS one cannot pickup from Apple Store.
