Not long after, the company released a statement to apologize for the incident. In details, they explain that by\u00a0decreasing the speed,\u00a0it would help protect the iPhone from ageing batteries issues. Additionally, Apple also claims that replacing batteries is the only solution. Meanwhile, Apple cuts the <a href=\"http:\/\/fortune.com\/2017\/12\/30\/apple-iphone-battery-discounted\/\">replacing battery price<\/a> down to 63% (~ $29).<\/p>\n<p>For now, Apple plans to keep on slowing down old iPhones to protect and maximise user experience. On the contrary, other brands have their own announcement. Based on the latest updates, Samsung and LG confirmed that they are not tinkering with the performance of older devices. LG clearly claims that they never did and never will do such things to customers. Meanwhile, Samsung clarifies that their battery always goes under safety measures, which does not affect\u00a0performance as well as the battery life.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6.webp 1024w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6-300x157.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6-768x403.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 476px) 100vw, 476px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"476\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Apple-iPhone-6-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 476px) 100vw, 476px\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-69089 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Apple iPhone 6 battery\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>Previously, HTC and Motorola also claimed that they do not have such behaviours on their products. Notably, HTC representative confirms that this is \u201cnot something we do\u201d. Meanwhile, Motorola stated: \u201cWe do not throttle CPU performance based on older batteries\u201d. For now, this situation is highly critical and controversial. We expect other brands including Google and Sony to give their comments on the problem soon.<\/p>\n<h3>Are there any problems to prevent slowing down old phones?<\/h3>\n<p>Even though other brands do not involve in reducing battery life intentionally, phones slowing down is unavoidable. If possible, there should be other solutions like new kind of battery or charger. Do you have any ideas on this problem?
