Apple is going to give back users some control over their iPhones. If we could just get Microsoft to let users decide which Windows 10 updates they want to take... all would be right with the world once again.

This is how it SHOULD work.

Apple screwed the pooch on this.

Stupid move by an arrogant company that treats its own customers like dirt

How is it I can buy a 60$ Chinese 5.5” phone that works beautifully and has an easily REPLACEABLE battery that cost about 10$!?

Batteries that you can’t change yourself for little $ are a scam.

I can see a whole lotta users enthusiastically & loudly turning off the throttling, only to grudgingly turn it back on and not really telling anyone.
In a whole lotta industries (from smartphones to guns) I’ve learned over the decades to go with the manufacturer’s decisions - they know more about the product than anyone, and while some of the decisions seem puzzling or lame, they’re usually right in the long run.

Future models will just spontaneously explode on their second birthday.
