Let's cut into Apple's bullshit. LiOn ageing is not unique to Apple. The problem is that their batteries are so horribly low powered (1800 mAh for iPhone 6s), especially for the price of the overall phone, that normal known ageing patterns would render the battery below spec of max power the iPhone draws at peak performance. It's BAD design. Note 8 ships with 3300mah and iPhone X with 2700mah. Both cost a $1000. Which one do you think will last longer if 2500mah were the max power threshold?

Note 8 is also a lot bigger than the X.

Android as an OS is far less power efficient than iOS, vendors combat this by supplying hardware with larger batteries while often sacrificing the quality of abilities of other components with the applicable space on the PCB / main board layout.

  Indeed. Anyway, I hope that Apple release a thicker iPhone, with bigger battery. Maybe we are reaching a maturity level of the market, where they can differentiate the iPhone more.

    If you want a thicker phone, why not put a battery case on it?
