You Can Could Get Up to $50 from $20M Apple Settlement

Apple has agreed to a $20 million settlement over a class-action lawsuit regarding cracked or detached displays in Apple Watch Series 0 to Series 3 models.

While Apple denies wrongdoing, affected users may be eligible for a payout between $20 and $50.

What’s the Issue?

The lawsuit, filed in 2018, alleged that swollen batteries in early Apple Watch models caused displays to crack or detach, but Apple refused warranty claims, classifying the damage as accidental.

Who Can Claim?

• You must have owned an affected Apple Watch model in the U.S.
• You must have reported the issue to Apple between April 24, 2015, and Feb 6, 2024.
• Apple will notify eligible users automatically, with payouts sent via their registered payment method.

What to Do Next

• If you’re eligible, Apple will contact you with a unique login code.
• You can update your payment details after receiving this code.
• Deadline: April 10, 2025.

Apple maintains that its watches are safe and reliable, but settled to avoid further litigation.
