Your issue isn't this "scandal" though. This is about preventing sporadic shutdowns by throttling, so if your phone was shutting down it was an undiagnosed bad battery, which is a legit complaint.
- ComputerGuru 9y agoYes it is. The “fix” was introduced to avoid these crashes by throttling instead of browning out. It’s in the article.
- akvadrako 9y agoThe fix, the throttling, is the controversial part, NOT the sporadic shutdowns. It's absurd, because throttling is much better than brownouts, but that's what the lawsuits are about.
- ComputerGuru 9y agoI don’t get it. You are acting as if the brownouts are typical behavior of a year-old battery in a phone? The real scandal is the shoddy design and engineering that led to brownouts that necessitated either a massive recall or this throttling.
- akvadrako 9y agoThat might be the "real scandal" but it isn't "this scandal". It doesn't matter what I think about brownouts because that isn't the topic.
