Who said it doesn’t pay to be an iPhone owner? If the ‘batterygate’ class-action lawsuit is approved, it could pave the way for some iPhone owners to receive $65 from the Cupertino based company. All of this stems from ‘batterygate’ and how Apple deliberately throttled the performance of some older iPhones in order to preserve their battery life.
Many folks have pinned batterygate as one of the biggest Apple fails of all time, along with bendgate, antennagate, and the Pippin to name a few. Apple admitted to letting users down, issuing a rare apology and offering a price reduction to its iPhone battery replacements.
