Apple iPhone Slowdown: Apple recently landed in a problem with its remark regarding slowing down the older iPhones for saving battery life. They have confessed that updates pushed on to old devices have degraded their overall performance.
Not just that, a statement from Apple now clears that they will allow users to turn off this feature from every future update pushed to their devices. Their official apology in December brought more problems as they are now being questioned by various US federal agencies.
They have even claimed that production of iPhone X will be reduced to half of present number as sales were not that impressive as expected. On the other hand, Samsung seems worried as this step will cut their profits as supply of OLED screen will also reduce to just 50%.
