From Apple's statement: "Lithium-ion batteries become less capable of supplying peak current demands when in cold conditions, have a low battery charge, or as they age over time, which can result in the device unexpectedly shutting down to protect its electronic components." Apple seems to be saying that throttling might occur even if the battery is perfectly fine. This points to a fundamental design flaw across many different models and generations, which is the main conclusion of this article. One could even argue that Apple is using a "cheat device" that produces different performance during benchmarks vs. actual real-world use. Sound familiar? This is exactly what VW did. Is it illegal? We will find out as the lawsuits proceed.
