Smartwatches are great little inventions, but unfortunately, from time to time, they may require repairs. It's quite common to drop the watch, or it falls out of your pocket, which can result in a cracked screen. This can cause the screen to malfunction, so you may need a screen replacement. Even the buttons on the side can become damaged from pressing them often. Simply fixable can organize screen, frame, button, and battery replacements to have your watch looking new again.
You may need a smartwatch screen repair if you have dropped the watch and cracked the screen. The team associated with Simply Fixable can repair the watch screen for you at an affordable rate and in a timely manner. The good thing about a smartwatch screen replacement is that Simply Fixable knows exactly who to get to make those repairs, meaning you get someone specializing in cracked smartwatch screen repair.
You may have a faulty battery if the watch doesn't hold charge long anymore. If you leave the watch charge overnight, there’s a chance it will be damaged from overcharging. Not to worry, an Apple smartwatch battery replacement can be put in the watch, and with a few preventive measures like not overcharging or playing with the watch while charging, you can keep your battery healthy.
A Samsung smartwatch frame replacement can often need to be done if the watch has been dropped on hard concrete surfaces. The blunt force can cause the framing around the watch to break, especially if it lands on the side. Luckily those types of repairs can be done by the partners of Simply Fixable, in most cases, on the same day.
The Apple smartwatch buttons are small and fragile. If you are too rough when pushing them, they can stop working, or if you touch the button with sticky hands, the stickiness may have gotten underneath the button, and you can no longer push the button. A smartwatch button replacement can be done, giving you a brand new, clean button ready to go.
Apple watches are the favorites, and they are growing in popularity. Sometimes, you may need an Apple watch repair, and the good thing is everything on a watch can be repaired or replaced. Even if you are having trouble putting a new band on the watch, Simply Fixable can help with that, too.
Some watches may need more repairs than others, especially if you use them a lot or are prone to dropping them. If you left the watch in the hot sun for the day, it has most likely fried the battery and you will need a new one put in. Other times, the watch may have ended up in water and may need water damage repairs. Luckily, both of these repairs can be complex but can be done by someone who knows exactly what they are doing.

The average timeframe for repairing a Samsung smartwatch or an Apple watch will depend on how busy the store is and how badly the device is damaged. For a basic screen replacement, you are looking at 30 minutes to one hour, and for a battery, it can take as little as 10-20 minutes and up to one hour to replace the frame around the watch. The same goes for button replacement, which takes around one hour to repair.
When it comes to determining whether to repair or replace a smartwatch, there are several factors that must be taken into consideration.
