After almost four years, Apple has finally started sending out payments for its $500 million iPhone throttling lawsuit to US consumers — those affected to get $92.17 per phone

Back of iPhone 6.

If you happened to have purchased an iPhone before December 2017, there’s a chance you have been given a tidy little sum of money by Apple this week. 

To be more specific, a US class action lawsuit settlement went through back in 2020 in regard to the battery throttling of a handful of the company’s major iPhones. You had to have claimed for this suit before October 2020 to be entitled to a payout of $92.17. Any iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, and 6s Plus running iOS 10.2.1 or later and any iPhone 7 or 7 Plus running iOS 11.2 or later was included in the suit.
