The right call is actually targeting performance at a level that would allow for longer consistent performance state.
If they're having to go to measures this drastic to keep their phones from shutting down, their batteries are underspec'd and their processors are overspec'd.
- minimaxir 9y agoThe issue only affected the 6/6S generation (EDIT: with overwatch for the 7); presumably Apple identified and fixed the issue for the 8 onwards.
- strictnein 9y agoNo, that's not what is being stated here. The iPhone 7 came out a year ago. iPhone 7 users are also being offered the $29 battery replacement.
- minimaxir 9y agoFixed comment with clarity.
- mmcnl 9y agoAre you sure? I bet the iPhone 7 batteries simply haven't aged enough.
- l4yao 9y agoI agree, and imagine they probably tried. Maybe it's a new supplier, maybe newer apps are more power hungry than predicted?
