Apple invented battery physics now?
- TallGuyShort 9y agoBattery physics? No. But they're definitely pioneers in the field of covert downclocking.
- Cyph0n 9y agoNo, Apple invented crippling phone performance without informing its users.
- stordoff 9y agoThey did invent a workaround to them that impacts other features without informing users though. I'd also query the batteries more directly anyway though - if throttling is needed this aggressively, that _may_ indicate they aren't really up to the task (e.g. they don't have enough capacity to allow for the natural dip without it being an issue / Apple are claiming battery life figures that are basically unattainable in the real world, and propping them up by slowing the device).
