The lithium ion batteries already die beyond repair on average not long after, so why invest in chips that last longer?

- dx034 6y agoDo they? I've never experienced that so early. Most mid-range phones are after two years so slow that they can't handle modern apps which is the most common reason people I know buy new phones. Higher spec smartphones tend to last much longer and can fetch good prices on ebay after two years.
- jmalicki 6y agoA large part of the slowness is due to CPU throttling so the battery won't catch fire. E.g. https://9to5mac.com/2020/01/12/what-is-iphone-throttling-why-does-it-happen/ https://9to5mac.com/2020/01/12/what-is-iphone-throttling-why...
