I dont know of any, nor did I say I did. But thats not what we're talking about. We're talking about a phone battery that lasts >5 years without degrdading to the point that it's causing random shutdowns even when the battery has a lot of juice left.
These batteries are in pretty much any other smartphone.
- simonh 9y agoBut they aren’t. There have been plenty of articles where journalists have checked this with battery experts and this is a known property of batteries. John Panzarino at TechCrunch has been all over this. It doesn’t happen to every battery, in fact it’s a minority of them, but then Apple only enables the management when they detect it. It’s just that the other manufacturers never did anything about it.
- CaptSpify 9y agoYeah, it's a known property that batteries degrade. But it's still a problem when you underprovision the battery. If you build it to last, it will last. Just because Apple spun it as good for the user doesn't make it true.
- spullara 9y agoThey aren't. Random shutdowns are a fact of life for all smartphones that don't reduce voltage when the battery degrades.
- CaptSpify 9y agoI never said otherwise. But they don't randomly shut down when you have a ton of battery left.
