Quote: Lol. It wasn't out of the goodness of their heart. The lower price is because they got caught throttling older phones.

...which they explained is intended to increase reliability of older phones with weak batteries, and can be remedied by replacing the battery. You'd think people would appreciate that their phones won't suddenly shut down, but "Apple Intentionally Slows Down Older Phones" makes better headlines without the explanation.

And I don't care why they offer the cheap replacement price. All I care is that they do. Even at $80, it was a better deal than paying 10 times that to replace the phone after two years.

And to get this thread on track: If you must interact with your female coworkers at any time in any way, wear a body cam. Better safe than sorry.
