Apple hit with class-action lawsuit over allegedly toxic 'forever' chemicals in Apple Watch bands
Briefly

Apple is embroiled in a California class action lawsuit over claims of false advertising related to its Apple Watch bands, alleging the presence of toxic PFAS chemicals. These chemicals, linked to severe health risks, are purportedly found in the Apple Watch Sport Band, Ocean Band, and NikeSport Band. The lawsuit underscores conflicting messages about the products' safety, as Apple previously marketed them as health-supportive and environmentally friendly. In response, Apple asserts that all its bands are safe, citing rigorous independent testing and materials analysis.
Apple Watch bands are safe for users to wear. In addition to our own testing, we also work with independent laboratories to conduct rigorous testing and analysis of the materials used in our products.
