Didn't Apple push updates to older devices that made them slower so that you'd buy their newest?
Depends how cynical you want to be and whether or not you trust Apple.
They claimed to slow things down so the aging batteries could run for close to as long as they could when they were new
You mean the company that repeatedly lies about being eco-friendly? The one that lied about refurbishing traded-in phones that they sent off to be crushed? The one that constantly lies about repairability, citing "privacy and security"?
Why wouldn't you trust them?
My guy, I never said whether you should trust them or not. I simply said "whether or not you trust Apple." That is up for you to decide
