Anyone else having a "popping" sound?

[bigjeep127]

I'm hearing a moderate "click" or "pop" noise when I raise my wrist and the screen comes on. It's not all the time, only when the watch screen has been idle for at least a minute or so. It's consistent though, and definitely there. I have it silenced, I'm not getting any haptic feedback when this happens (I shouldn't), I just hear the pop. I've searched and don't see anyone else with the same issue. I've done all kinds of restarts, no difference. Watch works great otherwise.

No. I'd have it checked out.

Yes - I created a thread here https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1873050/

seems like a pretty rare issue - Applecare are kindly replacing my watch.

Cool, thanks for the info. Looks like it's relatively widespread. I have no doubt Apple will replace the watch, I just wonder with supply if I'll get it soon. Have you gotten your replacement yet? I would assume it's not a refurb as I doubt there are many if any refurbs available yet.

Maybe the battery adhesive has come loose. iFixit stated it was held in with just a tiny amount.
