Triglav posted:there are no subsidized plans here anymore as far as i know in the uk we never really used 'subsidy' to describe it, maybe because it's pretty easy to do the maths and find that it would be cheaper buying the phone and a plan separately. afaik if you're buying a flagship phone that would cost as a lump sum more than a used car the preferred way to do it is still thru your telecom provider tho

cis autodrag posted:The battery is only 79 bucks? So this whole thing was people who could afford a 1000 dollar phone whining that they didn't want to pay 80 dollars for a battery and therefore Apple should defy physics to extend their battery life without decreasing performance? Apple users are fuckin babies apparently. the problem is that people had to just magically know that the reason their phone was slow was because their battery was degraded. shorter battery life is an obvious symptom of a battery that needs to be replaced. slower performance even when plugged in is not, and there's nothing in the ui that indicates that it's happening

I hope they add some kind of way to tell if your phone is being throttled after all of this bullshit.

ITT, an employee of a company that made somewhere around $10 billion in profit over the last few months tells their customers that they are babies for not wanting to pay for an overpriced battery replacement so that their already overpriced phone runs properly.

it's odd because apple laptops warn you when the battery decays to the point it needs to throttle the cpu, don't they?
