    Very nice video!
    I have charging problems with my Versa 3. I noticed damage charging pads on a smartwatch and I thought it could be a problem. So far I tried charging it by just making direct contact with cables, but it still didn't work properly. I noticed it starts to charge sometimes when i squeeze it, so my next step is to take it apart and see if perheaps a connector inside got loose. Thank you for showing this "HOW TO" clip.
    One small question, what kind of adhesive do you use to glue it together?

    My versa 3 started acting up around Christmas time, non stop vibrating, screen flashing through different apps and this would go on for sometimes 3 to 4 minutes. Since Christmas it's done this about six times and now the screen doesn't light up at all but when I touch the side button I can get a vibration. You can't buy the Versa 3 anymore but I love it, can this watch be fixed?

    • @Joesge
      @Joesge  Год назад

      Hello, thanks for commenting. We usually do not recommend using the smartwatch near water in general. In this case, it is very dependent on how you glue the screen down. No watch is water proof, but water resistant. If the glue holds on the screen then yes, it will be water resistant.
