Wait what happened? someone found out evidence that apple secretly throttles iphone performance when it detects that battery performance is degrading, which confirms the old rumor that old iphones "get slow." internet freaks out, apple apologizes and offers consumers $60 off battery replacements for phones newer than the iPhone 6 until 2019. basically Apple got busted slowing old phones and said "oopsie, you got us, here's a token for your trouble, but we aint stopping" --- ...

Master_Bass posted...Prestoff posted...Wait what happened? Well according to them it's either slow down your phone or the shit just randomly shuts off. Pretty sure people would rather the phone work slower than random reboots. Now the best solution would be to solve the problem without slowing down phones. Maybe they will try with a new update? --- @macdamurderer GT: Mac Da Murderer ... Copied to Clipboard!

Let's pretend they only truly wanted to help save the battery so it would last longer and not "die".
Would that even benefit most users of the phone? I doubt it. I generally buy the latest model every 2-3 years (not iphone) and I've never had any issue with my phone dying prematurely. Certainly nothing that was drastically noticeable. And even if I've used a phone for a full three years, going into buy a new model, I still notice nothing wrong with my battery. I would describe myself as a medium to heavier user. For example, I use roughly 12-18GB per month in data, if that puts anything into perspective. --- "I think that man will be president right about the time when spaceships come down filled with dinosaurs in red capes" - Tom Hanks ...
