San Francisco: With the aim to address an issue that can cause a small percentage of the devices to exhibit a permanently blank screen, tech giant Apple has announced a repair programme for the Apple Watch Series 6.
This problem impacts the 40mm Apple Watch Series 6, and the affected devices were manufactured between April 2021 and September 2021.
The tech giant said that Apple Watch Series 6 owners can use the serial number checker on the website to determine whether their devices are eligible for the repair programme.
