Do you miss phones with replaceable batteries? By 2027, you won’t anymore because, by law, almost every smartphone will have them again.

Guaranteed Apple will have code that says:
If phone > 2 years old:
If battery changed:
Etc
They’ll still make you buy a new phone. Don’t you worry about that.
I mean fuck Apple and all but what they were doing with downclocking the CPU of phones with aging batteries was absolutely a good thing for users.
If they didn’t do that, the phones would have randomly shut off as the voltage dropped. Their misstep was not telling people about it.
Glad to see I’m not the only sane person on these threads.
Apples a corporation that only exists to generate profit, they definitely suck as much as every other corporation, but the ‘Apple slowed down phones to make people upgrade’ thing is so braindead that it hurts.
Which if you have a replaceable battery it it’s not an issue
