No one would have blinked if Apple had just built the throttle into Low Power mode and documented the X% cut to clock speed and left stock performance alone.

- apetrovic 9y agoThe problem is - when the battery is bad, the phone will shutdown even if the gauge says 60% or so, and that isn’t obviously “low power mode”. Source: saw it happening on my daugher’s iPhone 6, a year or so ago. To be clear: I’m not apologizing Apple. They have “we’ll make decisions for the user” attitude in their DNK, but this was gone too far.
- StavrosK 9y agoI wonder if that's what's happening with my Nexus 6P, which shuts down at 40ish%.
- dsr_ 9y agoNo, that's a widespread defect. I called Google Fi to complain about in October, and they decided to replace my out-of-warranty 6P with a Pixel XL (1st gen, but new). Apparently they had run out of 6Ps and were trying to clear stock of 1st gen Pixels. They probably won't be quite so nice to you, sorry.
- StavrosK 9y agoYeah, I already called them and they said I could at most talk to Huawei to see if maybe they'll get it repaired :/
