Runtime falling short
A newer larger model can drain quickly when the cell is worn, but the main work and fitness watch pattern and settings are reviewed too.

Warranty and repair policy
Warranty coverage and exclusionsShow detailsHide details
Completed standard repairs include a 6-month warranty covering the replacement part and labour.
If a device has previous liquid damage and needs a different repair, only the part repaired or replaced in this visit is covered, not the whole device.
- a new drop or impact
- new or repeated liquid exposure
- misuse or accidental damage
- third-party opening, repair or modification
- a new unrelated fault
No Fix, No Charge detailsShow detailsHide details
If a diagnosed component is replaced and tested but does not resolve the fault, there is no charge. This also applies if added faults are found, or if the final price is higher than advised and you choose not to continue. For an unsuccessful repair, we do not charge for the repair attempt, a specially ordered part or a deposit already paid.
Inspection, repair or replacementShow detailsHide details
An inspection or disassembly fee can apply only when it is clearly disclosed and approved before work starts.
Repair can mean board-level or component-level work; replacement means directly replacing a component, not the whole phone. The right path depends on inspection. We generally prefer component replacement because board-repair labour can cost more, then explain the options before work begins.
Common problems
Common Apple Watch Series 9 45mm Battery Problems
These are common signs we check before confirming the repair path.
Unexpected shutdowns
Shutdowns may be battery wear, charger behaviour or deeper power-path trouble; the 45mm frame check area gives us extra context.
Swelling or screen lift
Lift around the 45mm frame check area can be a pressure warning, so avoid pressing the screen down before inspection.
Battery fault versus charging fault
Magnetic charging is checked first because a puck, cable or rear-surface issue can imitate battery failure.

Diagnostic process
Apple Watch Series 9 45mm battery replacement diagnostic process
A tired battery in this larger newer Series 9 is diagnosed from the pattern, not just the percentage. We check runtime, charger response and pressure marks together.
Review the power history
We ask when it drains, shuts down, heats up or shows pressure around the large newer display.
Test charging response
Known-good magnetic charging gear helps separate battery wear from accessory trouble.
Confirm safe repair scope
We set the repair path after inspection, part availability and condition are clear. We also check for display lift or case pressure.
Run handover checks
Startup, charging hold, display seating and everyday main work and fitness watch use are checked before handover.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is fast drain on Series 9 45mm definitely the battery?
No. Runtime is compared with charger response, heat, usage pattern and pressure around the 45mm frame check area.
Why does my Apple Watch Series 9 45mm shut down with charge left?
Unexpected shutdowns can be battery wear, charging trouble or internal power-path behaviour on this newer larger model.
Is screen lift a warning sign on this 45mm model?
Yes, it can be. Do not press the display back down; the 45mm frame check area needs a careful pressure check.
Could the magnetic charger be the real issue?
Yes. Cable, adapter and puck response are checked before the battery is treated as confirmed.
Will battery service make it water resistant again?
An opened Apple Watch should not be treated as factory water resistant. That is explained before handover.
Can you confirm timing for Apple Watch Series 9 45mm battery replacement now?
Timing is confirmed after inspection and part availability, not promised before we see the watch.
