Spotted in the wild... Apple Watch defective units
In the wake of the Apple Watch Haptic Engine (non)-scandal, we have reports of a few Apple Watches that are dead on arrival. The affected units won't boot up, and the only thing they will do is flash the Apple logo while charging. Apple is on it, and is replacing these asap though a call to Apple Tech Support. You won't have to wait long, it appears Apple had some extras on hand for this kind of thing. Our friend's replacement stainless steel Watch was shipped two days after the support call.
