Phone Thread

Those of you have iPhones, please be aware of this sneaky practice of Apple, that has long been suspected but only recently proven by a geek bench and finally admitted by Apple.

Long story short, Apple’s iOS updates intentionally slow down your iPhone in the name of preserving battery to the point that sometimes a one or two year old iPhone is unusable after an iOS update. As a result people buy new iPhones.

From various tech sites:

Even Fox News is reporting it:

Got the iPhone X. The whole family is on iphones/ipods so we can get in touch with my younger daughter if need be via Facetime audio/video. We also all share the music service. I know Android offers similar services, but they don't seem to be as integrated as Apple.

I used to say the same shit until I dropped my MOTO X first generation after having it for 3 years (hurt me to my soul cause that was my favorite phone ever).

Got the 2nd gen MOTO X and cracked it after 6 months.

Been rocking cases ever since.

case designs have come a LONG way since everybody was rocking otterboxes

there is practically no bulk anymore and the phone is actually easier to hold i've found

Spiegen is killing the case game imo
