Apple tried to avoid having people ask for battery replacement by hiding the issue. I am also expecting that the battery life will decrease not that it will not be able to keep the phone running.
- scarface74 8y agoAssuming that the battery performed well for the first year while it was still under warranty, why wouldn't Apple want customers to ask for a new battery? They would replace the battery at a profit and get them into the Apple Store where they could try to upsell them on a new phone.
- cma 8y agoBecause it would be easier to upsell them when they came to the store with getting a new phone in mind due to theirs being mysteriously slow.
- scarface74 8y agoWouldn’t it be easier just not to upgrade older phones and not allow phones running older OS’s to download the last compatible version of an app? Around the time of iOS 7, Apple started letting older versions of iOS download older version of apps that were compatible. Even today you can take a first gen iPad running iOS 5 and download apps that have since been upgraded but where there is an older version available. I reset my old iPad 1 about two years ago and redownloaded Netflix, Hulu, Spotify etc. They all still work.
