It's not a fundamental design flaw, this will happen with every device that ships with a modern rechargeable battery.
Android does the exact same thing now, but I don't see people boycotting Google over it.
The problem was that Apple didn't communicate this to the user. People didn't know why their phone was slow.
- flagrant_taco 3y agoI haven't actually seen Google specifically call out that their devices will be throttled in a year or two. I'd be curious to see thatif you have a link though, I haven't kept as up to date with the more recent pixel devices.
- efreak 3y agoAnecdotally: a while back while I was running a long build in termux in a warm room with my tablet plugged in to charge, I got a notification that my device was being throttled to prevent thermal damage. I wouldn't be surprised if this was common I haven't gotten such a message since, however I also don't have a habit of building software on my tablet (I have a vague memory that whatever it was didn't offer a cross compilation method outside of qemu/emulation)
