Anywhere in Trinidad I can get an Apple Watch repaired?

I placed my watch to charge on the official Apple charger and when I picked it up the back sensor stuck to the charger

Happened to my wife's 38mm stainless steel watch. We sent it back to Apple and they sent a new one as a replacement. Send it without the band.

I guess this is a thing. But I can't imagine how this happens. So the glass piece with the sensors gets detached ?
Trying to understand

From reading online the heat from the charger melts the glue causing the issue

@Duane

Will they repair even out of warranty?

Thanks all

So just got back.my Macbook 12
I world changed the screen out for me. However while the did that apparently they shorted out or damaged a connection band to the main board. Replaced it and had to replace the entire top cover and keyboard and some internals. Whole cost was covered by Apple.
So it's like a brand new Mac now.

Sadly walking out of West mall with it my iPhone fell down and screen cracked

Have to get the glass replaced tomorrow.
Irony of it all.

Brought an iwatch 2 last week as well..must say it works amazing. Bright screen and good battery
Really like the fitness tracking of it as well

So I have an iPod Classic 160gb silver to sell.

How much to call for it.

Using it as a backup for all my music.

no idea. Which generation is it?

I have an iPod Classic 3rd Gen (Click Wheel) and a Classic Photo 4th Gen (Colour screen) as well but don't use either because Apple Music does not work with it.

It's a 7th Gen.

Guess I'll keep it as storage then

well you can't beat Macs for that, they stay capable for years even with much less than current day PCs have

agreed! 8 years and counting... true workhorse ... contrary to what many use to think years ago.

Notice that iOS 11 has signal bars again vs the iOS 7-10 signal dots. Future proofing perhaps?

Ok I get his argument, why is a Pro machine an all in one. But the architecture allows for near unlimited upgrading via the USB-C bus. 2 additional 5K screens plus 2 additional thunderbolt drives simultaneously and you can probably swap out one of those for an eGPU like this one http://www.pcworld.com/article/3079785/ ... phics.html

Strongly considering purchasing the new iMac now (don't need the pro) but what do you guys think is the best way to ship it down? Estimated costs from web source with vat and opt is over $5000...

I brought in my 2015 iMac 27" with Websource and it cost about TT$800. The box is big and heavy.

EarPods sound exactly the same as the wired version. Check out Bose they have some nice wireless options

BS. Go with the Airpods.
Compatibility is awesome especially if you're into apple products. If sound quality is a requirement, then go with the Bose.
