Disclosed the reason for “brakes” the old iPhone.
Apple reduces the performance of the old iPhone due to the degradation of the battery. This hypothesis was put forward a Reddit user under the nickname TeckFire.
According to TeckFire, when the wear of the battery of its iPhone 6s accounted for 20 percent, this greatly affected the speed of the device. He suggested that the system artificially lowers maximum clock speed of the processor.
To replace the battery results smartphone in the GeekBench synthetic test was 1466 and 2512 points in single-core and multi-core test respectively. With a new battery it was already picked up and 4456 2526 points.
“Judging by the comments, none of the owners of iPhone 5s never had this problem, writes TechFire. — I also don’t know for sure, but it seems that starting with the iPhone 7 this problem is also no as the processors A10 and A11 core with low power consumption”.
In the comments to the post users have confirmed that their devices with old batteries, including laptops, are significantly slower than before.
