Apple have admitted to reduce the performance of their old devices

Some time 2 weeks ago, proof came up that there was a link between the performance capabilities of an iPhone and the age of its battery. A man called John Poole, creator of popularly known benchmark app Geekbench, decided to look into the issue and concluded that apple had in fact been implementing some sort of a limit to an iPhone processing power as the iPhone battery degrades past a certain point

Apple ended up coming out to publicly speak on the matter saying that, The Cupertino based company told TechCrunch that lithium-ion batteries become less capable of giving peak current demands when in cold conditions, when they have a very low battery charge or as they get older over time which can result in a device unexpectedly shutting down to protect its electronic components

and to that apple continued saying that, last year, they released a update for the iPhone 6, iPhone 6s and iPhone SE designed to smooth out instantaneous peaks when needed to prevent shutdowns during such conditions. The feature has since been extended to the iPhone 7 with iOS 11.2 and will be coming to other products in the future.

Indeed, Apple ran into an problem in 2016 with some iPhone 6s batteries that were causing sudden device shutdowns. The problem was “fixed” with a software update that, in hindsight, throttles or “smooths” out performance on devices with aging batteries.

Some people still hold a grudge that Apple is intentionally slowing down devices in order to get consumers to ditch their current iPhones and buy a shiny new handset. The jury is still out on that debate but in this case, it’s quite the opposite as they’re reducing peak power draw in order to prolong a handset’s life..

So what do you thing ?.....that apple are telling the truth.........or just trying to play god with our phone.
