Twice in my life an irreversible update has made an iPhone slow to the point of being unusable. People are skeptical for a reason.

  On the flip side, my iphone used to crap out at random times when I really needed it.

    That sounds terrible. I wouldn't know though because I have never had an Android phone do anything like that.

      That means you’ve never ran a phone with a bad enough battery so that it would’ve started throttling if it were an iPhone. It’s simple physics, nothing to do with being an iPhone or Android.

        I'm pretty sure software is a major factor. My Android phone is currently 5 years old and never done anything like that before. Neither have any of my Android phones in the past. If this is some law of physics, then why did it only happen to Apple phones?

          Yeah, if it didn’t happen to you doesn’t mean it didn’t happen to any of the hundreds of millions Android phones from a plethora of manufactures around the world. You can’t generalize from your anecdote.

      That’s because android phones won’t become old hardware-wise due to being made obsolete by software in like 3 years tops. And no, I’m not an apple fanboy, but even with this shitty behavior, iphones get some insane lifespans with usually many owners.

  iOS 4 on the 3G was a killer.
