The Apple Watch Series 7 came out in 2021, with a 41 mm or 45 mm Always-On Retina LTPO OLED display and the S7 SiP chip. It charges on a magnetic charging puck and it unlocks with a passcode, or from a paired iPhone. There is an aluminium or stainless steel frame, and it is rated IP6X and 50 metres water resistant. The first Watch with the larger 41 and 45 mm cases and the flatter, more curved front glass. Its screens do not fit a Series 6. The one sold in Ireland is A2473.

What this fixes

Why people book a free diagnostic.

  • Several things wrong at onceOften one cause with several symptoms, which is exactly what a diagnostic is for.
  • It comes and goesThe hardest kind to quote blind, and the one most likely to get the wrong part fitted.
  • It got worse after a repair somewhere elseWorth looking at properly rather than repeating the same repair.
  • You do not know what is wrongPerfectly normal. Describing what it does is more useful to us than naming a repair.
  • More than one thing is wrong at onceTwo faults together are usually one cause, and finding it is cheaper than fixing both.
  • Somebody else has already tried to fix itWorth starting from scratch. A device opened in a hurry often has more wrong with it than it arrived with.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely a hardware fault?

A diagnostic is not a repair, it is the step that stops you paying for the wrong one.

IfIt went in water at any point
Book the liquid damage assessment instead. It is a different process and looks for different things.
IfIt is a work phone and downtime matters
Tell us when you book. We look at those first and tell you early if it is going to take longer than a day.
IfYou already know exactly what is wrong
Then book the repair rather than the diagnostic. There is no reason to pay for a step you do not need, and the repair price already includes the checking.
IfIt is under manufacturer warranty
Go to them first and we will tell you so. A defect inside warranty should not cost you anything anywhere.
IfYou want a written quote for insurance
Say so at the counter and we will do it that way from the start.

If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

What parts do we fit?

Where Apple supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.

The words genuine and Apple certified mean something specific and we only use them when they are true of the part in front of us. Anything else is described as premium aftermarket, plainly.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the Free diagnostic includes

    • A full inspection on the bench, free
    • A written answer on what has failed
    • A price before any work happens
    • No fee if we cannot fix it

    No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.

    Dublin collection and return is available on weekdays if you cannot make it in. Nothing about the price or the cover changes because the courier brought it.

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Walk in during opening hours or book ahead, whichever suits. Tell us what the device is actually doing rather than what you think the fix is.

    Free diagnostic

    Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.

    You approve the price

    You hear the number first. If it is not worth it to you, that is a perfectly good answer and it costs you nothing.

    The repair is carried out

    Carried out here in Drumcondra rather than sent away, by people who do this repair daily.

    Bench testing

    We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.

    Back in your hands

    Yours again, from the counter or by courier, with 360 days of cover on the part and the work.

    Before it goes back

    What we test every time.

    A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.

    Power, charge and battery health

    The three things that explain most faults before anything is opened.

    Display, touch and every sensor

    End to end, because a fault in one often points at something else entirely.

    Cameras, speakers and microphones

    All of them, so nothing turns up as a surprise a week later.

    Ports and buttons

    Including the ones you did not mention, since damage rarely lands in only one place.

    Is anything on the device at risk?

    This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.

    We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.

    Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.

    What about the water resistance?

    Treat the phone as no longer water resistant after any repair, including ours.

    Apple's IP68 rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed phone under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not a permanent property of the device. The seal degrades with age, heat and everyday knocks long before anybody opens it.

    Opening a phone means cutting through that seal. We refit the display with fresh adhesive, which restores a physical seal and keeps ordinary splashes and rain out. What we will not do is tell you it is back to IP68, because we have no way to test that and neither does any independent shop in Ireland.

    If your phone lives near water, say so when you book and we will talk you through what the adhesive does and does not cover.

    The 360-day warranty

    Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.

    What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.

    No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.

    Three ways to get it to us

    • Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
    • We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
    • Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.

    Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

    Asked all the time

    Apple Watch Series 7 screen questions.

    We quote it after a free diagnostic, because the price depends on what we find. No fix, no fee, so if we cannot repair it you pay nothing.

    Usually while you wait. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    No. The diagnostic is free, you get told what has failed and what it costs, and there is no fee if we cannot fix it.

    Usually while you wait for the straightforward ones. An intermittent fault sometimes has to be left running for a few hours to catch it, and we will tell you at the counter if that is likely.

    Then you pay nothing and take the phone away knowing what is wrong with it. That is a legitimate outcome and it happens often.

    No. It is free, it is honest, and there is no fee if we cannot fix the device.

    Only with your say-so. You get the cause, the price and the option to say no before any paid work starts.

    iMEND is an independent repair service. Brand and model names are used only to describe the devices we repair. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorised service provider for any manufacturer.

    Why bring it here

    An independent workshop, not a kiosk.

    We are a dedicated repair bench in Dublin 3. That means we take on work authorised channels turn away, and we tell you honestly when something is not worth fixing.

    Diagnosed, not guessed

    Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.
