Apple Watch Series 4

[Snoweagle]

weird...
i’m on 5.0.1 and it says no new updates...
maybe cos the latest update has been removed

Because Apple’s trying to get the issue fixed so it can be re-released, maybe 5.1.1?

But I’m already on 5.1.

The watchOS 5.1 OTA update has been pulled/removed due to reports of it having to brick the Apple Watches.

I think my GSS is fine.

It seems your screen Left side is brighter?

Was browsing the menu in the dark in my room when I first noticed it:



Next, I downloaded a grey photo to the watch to compare. There is significant unevenness in the lighting of the screen.



A couple more people seem to have this issue as reported on Reddit:

That sounds very bad QC and it’s unusual for you to keep getting scratched units too.

Maybe those are returned sets?

If returned sets, shouldn't be 're-issued' right? Replacements needed to be done first before sending it out again.

Pickup and delivery are different..

Let say if the pickup today is available at Apple Orchard Store, then you may go to make payment now and collect at the store before 10pm by Today. Make sure you select a correct option while making payment.

You will see the pickup date will be on end of November latest by this evening if the today pickup at the store not avail..
