Sorry, are you angrily asking if I saw you say it before you said it? Are you Benjamin Button?did you not see where I said all else remaining equal?
It's a bit hard to trace your logic through the inconsistent set of units and concepts.A 12V laptop battery will provide for example a certain watts per cell. This will typically be 2-6Ah.
A 12V industrial battery, (that I am working with right now), will provide 2500W per cell for about 10 mins to 9,6v cut off. This is 90Ah.
Similarly, the very old decrepit 12V battery I took from my car years ago still has voltage at the terminal and will run 300W inverter amongst other things.
Everything else remaining the same, which do you think will fall below the power/current required to support your device first?
Honestly before you come back with any BS, go google about battery capacity and peak currents, have a quick look at short circuit currents too, (that part will give you an idea of the absolute current spike on might be able to deal with).
To summarise, a 20% drop in capacity for a 100Ah block will leave it with more oomph than a 20% drop in capacity with a 10Ah block.
How do you clever boys not see this?
Let me just skip to the bit where I point out that you keep talking about reduced capacity when the problem is increased source resistance. The problem isn't power or current to support your device, it's the ability to hold a voltage for a given load current.
The problem isn't that the battery life is reduced, the problem is that if the system demands enough current, the voltage dips below the regulator limit and the device hard resets rather than gracefully power down.
So, by saying they would deteriorate the same amount (they wouldn't) you're saying the internal resistance is the same which means the voltage dips the same amount under the same load which means they would have the same problem.the problem by the way would not be the same
They do not. I have that feature disabled on my device.Apple very likely download logs from your phones and devices on a regular basis. They know the usage profile.
So, leaving all the technical aspects aside, I think this is the core of your argument: "They could have done something else". Yes, they could have. They could have made the battery bigger, they could have made it smaller, they chose the battery they did.They know what likely prolonged usage a phone's going to get, they know what short bursts are likely to crop up. They have data from the battery company.
They aggregate all of that data and they pick a point and say, 'X size is sufficient'. they got that point wrong.
They know how long your battery is likely to last.
They didn't get it wrong, like there was a pass/fail criteria, they made a design tradeoff that suited many people just fine. To my earlier point, putting in a larger battery would have been a different product, you can't just put a "bigger battery in the same device". Everything changes. Bigger battery means either bigger phone or different feature set.
Apple is free to optimize the battery, hardware, dimensions and firmware of their complete system as they choose.
So the fact they could have done something different doesn't justify a suit. The fact that what they chose didn't fit your use case doesn't justify a suit. Even if what they chose didn't suit most people's use cases, it doesn't justify a suit.
If the argument is, "I wish they chose a different tradeoff, so I'm going to sue" then this is completely frivolous.
