Hi!
I have a Apple Watch Series 3 bought 2017 (4 years old already) that's not turning on or charging anymore.
Holding down both buttons (hard reset) will show the apple logo for about 1 sec, before disappearing again then zero response.
Went to Machines, they say cannot repair, ask me buy new one instead....
My questions:
1. Can recommend any shop/place that can repair the watch? I'm thinking it's probably a battery problem.
2. Estimated cost of repair and is it worth repairing?
3. How old is your Apple Watch that you are still using? (to get an idea of a typical lifespan of an apple watch)
4. Aside from telling time and health (steps/heart rate/etc) tracing, the most useful and frequently used feature that i like is the ability to unlock my phone when wearing mask. Are there any other watches or bluetooth device that can unlock our phone in a similar manner?
Thank you all in advance!
I’m surprised machines ask you to buy a new one, normally they would at least refer you to their service center..I have a Apple Watch Series 3 bought 2017 (4 years old already) that's not turning on or charging anymore.

1. Where is your area? KL/PJ/?
2. Depends on what’s the issue, if it’s battery replacement then should be within 200-300, if it’s motherboard or chipset related then maybe just get a new one
3. I had a S3 given to my cousin and still going strong, bought it at launch..using S5 also bought it at launch, still in great condition
4. Just like you, I like the unlock while wearing mask, and also get prompted on emails and other notifications. But mostly use for workout…not sure of any other devices that can offer the same, as it synchronizes to our iPhones I think the best is Apple Watch.
