We have some breaking news regarding the Apple Watch.

It turns out there is a reason Apple had such a limited rollout of the Apple Watch. They apparently found a faulty key component within the Apple Watch manufacturing from one of their suppliers. This faulty part was the taptic engine that gives the user physical feedback on their wrist when a notification activates on the device.

According to the source of this report, only Apple's Chinese supplier, AAC Technologies, had the problem with the faulty component, but this was enough of an issue that Apple had to limit the release of the watch until the issue can be resolved. We will share more details when they are revealed.
