The mixed reviews weighed on Apple shares, which were down about 2 percent at $155 in afternoon trading.

Gene Munster, a longtime Apple analyst with Loup Ventures, doubted issues with the Series 3 Watch would hurt Apple`s bottom line. "That review takeaway is a negative but is not a surprise. This is the first generation watch with LTE," he told Reuters.

Apple also experienced hiccups with iOS 11, the new operating system the firm released Tuesday.

For business users, iOS 11`s Mail application had problems sending mail for Microsoft Exchange and Outlook.com mail accounts.

"We`re working closely with Microsoft to resolve the issue and will release a fix soon in an upcoming software update," Apple spokeswoman Trudy Muller told Reuters.
