A magnetic watch band clasp can inadvertently trigger the lid sensor on certain laptops, causing the screen to momentarily go black and return the user to the login screen. This issue was discovered on an Acer Swift Go 16 AI laptop with AMD Gorgon Point silicon, where the lid sensor, located in the upper-right bezel, can be activated by magnets near the bottom-right of the deck. While not affecting all users, the problem can occur if a user wears a watch with a magnetic clasp on the same side as the sensor, particularly if they are left-handed or right-handed individuals who wear their watch on their right wrist.
