Mine it says it’s connected to charger but not charging and the charger color is red Tysm cuz when I just wipe it with my fingers and it worked thanks :)

Great video, thanks Mike. Sound advice. Not got a Apple Watch. Maybe Apple should release an Apple Watch Pro that would make me press the buy button.

[@mikesunboxing]

i have had a good number or smart and dumb watches and this is the one that i always seem to come back to, it isn't perfect but very close

Have to say i only clean watch charger every other week at best but i clean my watch daily to remove any moisture / dust so sensor works properly. Maybe over zealous but opposite to wife's which she never cleans lol 2bf with laminate floors its amazing how much dust gets onto charger! We use samsung watches so share same charger and brand new one still in box! Thanks for sharing Mike and Kath, enjoy your weekend👍

[@mikesunboxing]

Thanks for sharing and you guys too

Thanks. I'm on my second watch with this problem. I have literally repeatedly placed my watch on the charger hundreds (I counted) of times with no results. I clean, I have the cord that came with the watch, I tried different plug-in boxes, different outlets and quite honestly I'm on a second watch because I got so frustrated I smashed the first one.

[@mikesunboxing]

sorry to hear that

[@user-ww8cr8mv5z]

My watch is charging too slowly and is also draining charging even plugged to charging ?

[@mikesunboxing]

how many amps it the USB outlet you are plugging into? ideally we need at least 2 amps on the charger or higher

[@charlisaduncan4020]

Idk if mines is fully dead or not I just got my Apple Watch and it does show it’s charging screen is black

[@mikesunboxing]

clean the surfaces and make sure the usb is getting enough amperage

[@norbertocriado7718]

It seems to be that if iWatch is almost fully discharged, it won't reset or full reset or whatever !!! Or my watch is hw damaged.. it is series 4... Have no another mag cable... I will get one and I will feedback... Bye!

[@mikesunboxing]

good luck and try using a high output charger at least 2.0a

[@Nonstopcatozz]

Mine shows the charger and the bold but won’t turn on

My lightning bolt on my watch is turning green, but it doesn’t turn on anymore. It just stays green until I take it off the charger and then its read again, but it won’t turn on and I can’t reset it

[@mikesunboxing]

try it on another charger if you can

have you tried a new charging plug or cable, could be resistance

[@elizavetadolgova]

I’ve just fixed this problem on my Apple Watch Series 8. My screen looked different - I saw a black screen, one icon and the time only (classic style, not my talkative Mickey Mouse 🙂) and nothing else. My screen showed the time and GREEN lightning bolt but there was no active progress bar or anything like that to understand when the watch is going to show a percentage or whatever it should show to be charged. I could not charge my watch by connecting it to my laptop that is connected to the outlet on my wall through a surge protector. Then I set the time for 1 hour (using my timer at home, not the watch) to wait and charge my Apple Watch without looking at it all the time, and to charge the watch, I’ve used a power adapter which I inserted right into the outlet on my wall. Nothing has changed but after 7-10 minutes(!!!) I saw that the screen on my Apple Watch has changed and everything is working now 🙂 I am not an expert to understand why I’ve fixed this issue like that but I hope that what I did will help other people to save time and not to cry so much as I did before making the Apple Watch work again 🙂

[@Shoopshoop]

I am having the exact same issue right now, the watch is warm but nothing is happening… so frustrating

[@elizavetadolgova]

@@Shoopshoop Don’t worry, keep charging your watch 🙂

[@WarmSun_MGM]

I’m confused how did you fix it? I had a series 3 for 4 years with no issues. Now i have the series 8 and it won’t charge past 10% I’ve tried resetting, cleaning the watch and chargers, different outlets and nothings working.

[@elizavetadolgova]

@@WarmSun_MGM I reread my first long comment and I feel like I answered your question there

[@dkrealist]

Bullshit, bought SE for my kid and it wont charge. So why would a brand new from the factory refuse to charge. Clean, still wont charge, returning it to Costco. Shouldnt have to super clean it. My Samsung charge right off my sweaty wrist, no cleaning and it's charging. Apple products not good anymore.

[@mikesunboxing]

was that with the supplied charger or a qi charger?

[@mlgxcrusher9822]

Please help me my apple watch stuck on green snake of death

[@mikesunboxing]

try cleaning all the contact areas between the watch and the charger, and make sure the USB end is not damaged and receiving power. isopropol alcohol is good for removing grease and cleaning the surfaces

[@mlgxcrusher9822]

Sir i have already clean the watch and charger but not working

It didn’t work.
