El Apple Watch It is not an economic product, although in its most "modest" version, sport, you did not give as much of a competitor as the Gear S, and as such, neither will its repairs be. If you plan to buy an Apple watch, you may also be interested in taking into account what it could cost to repair it.
Apple Watch repair prices
Once the Apple Watch It has been pre-launched in nine countries and there are practically no secrets left, although some details related to the device such as its repair costs. Also in this case the company has introduced certain new features such as the advance of a payment and a fee or the Watch replacement while ours is in technical service. The following image reflects these values:
As explained from El Mundo, the first column refers to the value being our Apple Watch with the insurance of the company contracted (we remind you that the minimum guarantee is 2 years in any country of the European Union) while the third column would be a rate that would also have to be paid. In both cases, these amounts would be returned when Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), You have verified that the device, or rather its fault, is covered by the warranty.
The middle column expresses the repair prices when our Apple Watch whether it is outside the warranty period or when the fault to be repaired is not covered by the warranty. In this case we can see how costs skyrocket. For example, for the Apple Watch Sport whose sale value is $ 349, would have a cost of $ 229 (to which we must also add that rate in the third column), that is, 65,61% or 2/3 of the value of our watch is what that it would cost us to repair it. I don't know about you, but I think it's almost better to get a new one.
In case it is the battery that needs to be replaced from our Apple Watch, the cost will be $ 79.
These are the prices in the United States. In Spain, as in France for example, as you can imagine they will be somewhat higher but it is still unknown.
