APPLE ADMITS SLOWING DEVICES

Today, Apple admitted to slowing down older iphones and will continue to do so in the future.

They said they do this to prolong the life of the device.

I call major bullshit. Everyone knows its for the money and security of sales for future Apple products.

I could see their reasoning being legitimate. The cause makes sense, lol; after time, batteries deteriorate and become unreliable, causing death at ~20%, with the updates they provided, it uses less resources to prolong battery life.

If you don't want your phone to get slower just stop upgrading the iOS?

Over the years, I kinda figured phone companies would do this. But atleast allow the user to choose if they would prefer battery life.

Well this is kinda oblivous. I.m. I remember not upgrading my old Ipad2 for a long time and it was working like a clock, but ones I updated it like 99 of any applications started to crash every 10-15 mins. I mean, you really should avoid getting any upgrades of your old devise ones new iphone\ipad is released.

I bought an iPhone for my mom for x-nas, hope I'll not regret it

I don't see the fuss about it. If you replace your battery the speed is fine again.
