      Really Disaster
      literally

      even galaxy S20 have bad battery
      152mm....4000Mah
      besides the resolution, it so high
      1440 x 3200 pixels (~563 ppi density)

      Iphone 12
      147mm....2815Mah
      1170 x 2532 pixels (~460 ppi density)

      even FHD enough for such this kind of small screen

        Imagine you have battery save icon in menu and you turn it on and off by YOURSELF when you NEED it.
        I hope i helped you

          After last month the 142 MB update aka downgrade and ios 14.2 destroyed my iPhone se mk1 completely, can use Internet to browse on, page take ages to open is the same on wireless as well, some apps don't seem to work anymore, I'm use to this, sadly for now I can't sue them for this and other apple devices that they destroyed ,but I have time, and I want entire new device not 25 $ ,what is that????

              Anonymous, 03 Dec 2020And samsung ? Why don't they face the same lawsuits?Samsung offers original parts at their stock. Of course, older ones is not available.
              Samsung also did not slows down your CPU to keep look that battery is fine.
              Samsung also didn`t cut off power on cold (even if Your phone is new).

              These all affects not only Samsung. Xiaomi and rest of zoo...

              And also, You can`t change any part in newer iPhones by Your own or using third service. Even if You have original parts from donor, they should be paired by special software. Anyway - it woudn`t work.

              Here is why apple is a bad guys. They create repair monopoly with abnormal prices.

Apple prioritising ba... moreYour smartphone slows down not because of increased complexity through updates but because Apple preemptively added codes via OTA to deliberately slow it down without the user's consent. Unfortunately Apple didn't provide any notification of "reduced performance" and they never relayed their intentions until an observant user took notice.

                  If it was a pro, legacy making, smart idea then don't you think a compy like apple would come out and "brag" about their new development and say "courage" is what made them move forward with deciding that? Reality proves otherwise.

                    Wake up and go for android. Apple isn't worth the extra price.

                      I still don’t understand the scandal. Apple prioritising battery life over performance for ageing phones through software update sounds completely normal to me.
