Guys, stop telling these sheeps what to do. Clearly, they are in denial. Let them waste their life's saving on the "latest & greatest" from Apple

LG superfan, 29 Dec 2017The best way is to not biy theyre products and cause them h... moreApple supports their hardware much longer than most other brands. Even the iPhone 5s is still supported. The slowing down (under very heavy loads) is reported as imperceptible to most and it's there to actually improve the user experience on older hardware -- the opposite of planned obsolescence.
The headline is somewhat incorrect, as it is not really random "users" who filed the lawsuits, but law firms which make their money by filing class action suits. The real users will get a penny, while the law firms will settle for millions in fees.
But Apple did drop the price of battery replacements to $29 in response, which is good news for iPhone users.

F1rstman, 29 Dec 2017You are not being a respectful human being by calling other... moreI would like to see people speak more respectively online, but you really are ignorant to expect to
1)get an apology for some one's rude comment online and
2) to get treated with respect online
I do apologize if you find this comment offense, but you really need a thicker skin. Your complaining and whining is just as bad as the previous poster's insult. That person likely won't change, but you can! If your able to just ignore the trolls and otherwise rude posters you'll find your experience better, but by not engaging with such people you'll create a better community overall.

I honestly miss phones with removable batteries, but that was something to trade in when we got phones made out of glass or metal.
