People downvoting but I thought the same thing. Hope it sorts itself out or wait until it's really causing an issue. I get being worried about your new expensive investment, but sometimes it's just unneeded stress.

The Ultra's Sapphire glass should scratch less than your series 4 (unless you are using a n S4 with sapphire glass already)

But, it is more prone to shattering. The raised lip and flat glass helps with this, and the speakers are much bigger, too. Don't know if the Microphone would hold up though, I don't work where my watch is exposed to fine metal particles. Guess I should consider myself lucky lol

Well it’s in quite poor condition tbh, screen scratched all over, and it’s about 4 years old! I’d love an ultra, but would get ruined in my job. My current series 4 works fine though, apart from said issues!

Apple may replace the apple watch for free, but it depends on how you tell them about the damage. Only reason they would end up replacing it for free is if it is in warranty, and you just tell them you don't know why the microphone died lol

I would not be keeping my phone around if that was happening, but that’s just me.

I also work with steel, I have zero issues though.

I’m also a metal fabricator and my camera looks the same every day. I use a q-tip to clean around the lens. Also my charging port broke due to shavings getting in there. Luckily I can still charge magnetically.

Well that tells me it’s likely syncing data from iCloud then. Or from some other cloud storage/sync/backup service.

Have you checked your recently deleted photos album? I vaguely remember that causing uncatagorized storage issues in the past.

If you still want further help, you’ll need to call them back and speak with a senior advisor. But again, you’ll be trying different steps to see what eventually resolves it. There’s no way of knowing for sure without an engineering escalation, which requires more testing and data collecting, and waiting for a response. Holidays are slow, so good luck.

Welding and metal work. I do a lot of grinding and there’s always general metal dust about. I also wear an Apple Watch and the speakers are totally full of rust and the mic doesn’t work!
