IPhone owners will have a choice to consume battery faster and to block iPhone

Following scanadalului that Apple was accused of intentionally reduce performance devices in order to force users to buy newer generation ones, the management of the American company comes up with some so-called "future solutions".
It has been established that future versions of iOS will allow users to better manage battery resources and receive more accurate reports on consumption. Most likely, as Apple has accustomed us, this update will come on the iOS 11.3 version. We have antecedents with these major updates in iOS x.3. iOS 9.3 and iOS 10.3 also came with major changes to the operating system.
Apple responded accusations justifying that performance is lower on old models of iPhone and iPad to prevent blocking or sudden closure of them and for the battery to work longer. Questionable.


An interview given by rececent Tim Cook (Apple's CEO) gives serious thought to the users of iPhone and iPad.
Apple's iOS developers are working hard to bring major changes in terms of battery consumption in relation to processor (CPU) performance. They will appear in future versions of iOS the characteristic that will allow users to choose between normal CPU performance in exchange Closing risk unexpected deviceof the
More precisely, users will be able to choose between increased performance of the iPhone, with the risk of it shutting down suddenly, or weaker performance, but with stability and less running fluidity.

This new feature management CPU resources and battery will be included in the iOS versions that will appear in the middle of this year, and the settings will be found under the menu "Settings” → “General” → “Battery Health". Also here will be included a report that reflects the health of the iPhone battery, so that the user can decide how he wants to use it. For normal or weaker performance.

Until then, it remains to be seen how Apple will get rid of the countless lawsuits in the US and Europe. In France, which has a dedicated law for companies that intentionally degrade older models of devices in order to increase sales of new models, Apple risks a fine of up to 5% of the turnover. This translates into a number with a lot of "zeros" that Apple could be made to pay as a fine for this practice of intentionally degrading iPhone performance.

As an owner of several iPhone models, including the iPhone 6s, I can say that I noticed major improvements after the iOS updates that preceded this scandal. The device no longer closes unexpectedly and the performances are in decent parameters.

I've been writing passionately since 2004 about Windows and Linux operating systems, and since 2010 I've become a fan of Apple University. I'm currently writing tutorials for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, AirPods, and other Apple devices.
