              But this? Intentionally doing this to people, to force them to upgrade every year? Now they really crossed the line. They apologized, and instead of giving people choice: battery or performance - they lowered prices of battery replacement kits. They did so, knowing that people aren't professionals, and many won't do it, and many will fuck something up while tryinf to do it, and Apple will be more than happy to charge them high price for repairing.

                For one, iOS has become less stable and starting to become worse than Android. Their SoCs can save them for a short period of time only, because Android's SoCs are getting more and more powerful every single time.

                          -. -, 30 Dec 2017Well to be fair, xa only got nov, while j7 got decxa is lower midrange,a7 is upper mid range
                          just compare the price of a7 and xa and the diffrence is almost double (180$ vs 350$)

                                    Samsung's 2017 mid range smartphone is treated by Samsung as much as Sony's 2016 mid range smartphone is treated by Sony. Lol.

                                    Well, at least neither of the two gave an update to slow the phone down. *ehem fruit*
