Just 17 years old Tyler Barney noticed his iphone 6's slowed down with a software update. But sped up again with a new battery. His discovery posted to the website reddit went viral, sparking criticism aimed at Apple. Most people think, you know, my phone is slow, I need to go buy a new phone but the problem doesn't lie on us early with the phone. It's just with the battery in the phone. Now Apple is apologizing for not being clear it does slow down phones with aging batteries to keep them from shutting down unexpectedly.
I think it's on them to do a much better job of helping1 people understand what goes on with these very expensive products as they get older. Several class-action lawsuits2 filed in recent days by iphone users claim Apple should have disclosed the slow down sooner. I think that it's a well-thought-out plan by Apple to make sure that consumers come back and buy the latest and greatest phone. Apple denies this saying we have never and would never do anything to intentionally3 shorten the life of any Apple product Or degrade the user experience to drive customer upgrades. Starting in late January the company will offer replacement4 batteries for $29 an iphone 6 or later that's a $50 discount and much cheaper than buying a new phone for up to a thousand bucks5.
17岁的泰勒·巴尼发现,他更新了自己的iphone 6的一个的软件后,手机运行变慢了。但是换了一个新电池后手机又变快了。他发在红迪网的相关帖子火了,这引发了针对苹果公司的批评。大多数人认为,你知道,我的手机很慢,我需要去买一个新的手机,但问题可能不在于我们的手机。原因只是手机里面的电池。现在,苹果正在为没有说明电池老化确实会使手机变慢而道歉,这是为了避免出现意外关机。我认为,他们有责任更好地帮助人们理解这些非常昂贵的产品使用年限增长后的情况。最近几天,苹果用户提起的几起集体诉讼称,苹果本应更早披露电池老化会使手机变慢的情况。我认为这是苹果公司深思熟虑的计划,以确保消费者回来购买最新最好的手机。苹果否认了这一说法,称他们从来没有也永远不会做任何故意缩短任何苹果产品寿命 或者降低用户体验以驱使客户换新的事情。从1月下旬开始,苹果公司将为使用iphone 6或更晚发布的手机的用户提供29美元的替换电池服务,折扣为50美元,而且这比花1000美元买一部新手机便宜多了。
