Ilikecheese@lemm.eetoApple@lemmy.world•Gurman: Major ‘Apple Watch X’ redesign coming as soon as next year, testing magnetic band attachments

1 year agoActivation lock on newer Apple devices is pretty bulletproof. Unless you’re stealing it for parts, it’s not gonna be worth your time and since the repairability is pretty low, I don’t see theft as being a huge problem for the Apple Watch.
Personally I would be more worried about it falling off with magnets. I was in a river this weekend and wasn’t worried at all, but if all I had was magnets holding it on, I would definitely think twice about going in with that setup.
I just went and tried USB A-C with 4 different portable chargers I have and all of them worked just fine.
