Though the company firmly denies the allegations, they opted for settlement to mitigate potential legal costs from the five-year-long case. The settlement applies to purchasers of the Original Apple Watch, Series 1 to Series 3. Claimants must report their complaints to customer service within specific dates to qualify for compensation ranging from $20 to $50, ensuring they submit their payment information before the deadline in 2025.
Apple has agreed to pay $20 million to resolve a class-action lawsuit over battery swelling on the Apple Watch, denying any wrongdoing and maintaining the devices are safe.
Battery swelling occurs due to heat and gas buildup in lithium-ion batteries, which can potentially damage the device components as it expands.
