    What, a company supporting hardware that any other company would consider EoL?

    Lithium batteries have a limited lifespan, and there’s no way around it. Limiting the voltage range can extend the lifespan of near-dead batteries for a while, but at the expense of capacity.

      Its the users job to replace aging components, not the manifacturer. The manifacturers should only make them necessary components availible and (like in this case) reimbursh the users for the parts.

      Also, since not every phone is affected by this it would have been more feasable to place a switch in the settings if you habe Batt problems, since they themselves aknowledge you can just change there battery to solve the issue
