![]() ![]() This will have a noticeable impact on the 2017 iPhone handset, and users may not understand why their smartphone is slowing down. The issue isn’t that the feature is present, the issue is that once more Apple is making decisions and not clearly communicating them to its users. In the case of the iPhone, that means the handset will shut down to prevent any damage to the electronics. But the older the battery, the lower the threshold is before it simply cannot deliver. Put too much demand over any battery and there comes a point where it does not deliver. Even with current technology, as batteries get older they get weaker. As batteries get older the chemistry changes and they can no longer put out the same power. The theory behind the throttling is relatively sound. ![]() This is the auto-throttling feature that was added to older iPhone models that reduces the load demanded of older batteries by reducing performance and speed. Tucked away in the iOS update is a feature listed as ‘performance management’ for the iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and iPhone X. ![]() We found Apple’s first-ever modular SIM reader, possibly there to help with their newfangled multi-SIM plans.Īpple Prepares To Throttle Last Year’s iPhone Handsets Meanwhile the team at iFixit have been busy breaking open the iPhone XR to find out what lies inside the new handset… and the answer appears to be ‘the iPhone 9’, or at least the iPhone 8 design cues with the XS chip set:Ī peek under the hood revealed design hallmarks reminiscent of both the iPhone 8 (rectangular battery, single layer board) and X (square-ish logic board, Face ID), making this the spiritual "iPhone 9."īut the XR isn’t all throwback-it’s got the latest silicon, and contains features entirely new to iPhones. Pre-orders for the diminutive desktop starts today, and it starts shipping on November 7. The low-end version features 8GB of RAM and starts at $799. Like the new Air, the updated Mini is made from 100 percent recycled aluminium… That said, the Mini is still priced like an entry level device. On the back of the device, you’ll find four Thunderbolt 3, an HDMI and USB-A ports. The new device features the latest generation six core processor, up to 64GB of RAM and up to 2TB of solid state storage. Also getting a ‘finally updated’ is the Mac Mini, Apple’s standalone computer in a box where you supply the keyboard, mouse, and monitor. It also weighs just 2.75 pounds, which is lighter than the previous MacBook Air model that came in at 2.96 pounds. It has a 13.3-inch screen that stretches to the edge of the enclosure, two USB-C ports, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It has a Retina display, 50 percent thinner bezels in a design similar to the standard MacBook, and upgraded components. It’s an incredibly narrow space to squeeze the laptop into. What has actually been announced is effectively a MacBook Pro Air, which sits above the MacBook, but below the MacBook Pro in the portfolio. Move beyond the headline and you’ll see that Apple is still selling the original MacBook Air design at the $999 mark.
