Let's go with your car analogy. You bought a shiny new car with 4wheel drive for 100k and you drove up the mountain because the car company said it's the best 4wheel drive car ever built. And now up there, due to cold wether, the 4wheel drive went unresponsive. Please elaborate your reaction to that event? I hope you would say "it's a new hardware.. bound to have bugs"..
I'm willing to bet that that is only for the CPU. If it has a 2nd temp sensor, put it in airplane mode and ask Siri what the temperature is. She should be able to tell you, right ?
They really need to do better environmental testing on these... it’s not like they don’t have the cash. Just California has snow-capped mountains that are dangerously cold in winter and Death Valley at 120 degrees in the summer. They don’t even have to leave their state to see that people need a bigger operating range.
Because to them, they're not issues. They're just the proper way that things should take place, decided by Apple. They accept this.
Keep waiting, it will always be something for people to bitch about, technology is never perfect.
Doesn't really matter what the core issue is. If they can fix it via software, they're going to. The alternative is replacing hardware .... but with what ? Clearly Apple didn't do enough testing of the hardware's behavior in cold temperatures. They'd have to come up with an improved design, test it, then manufacture it. That's a 6+ month process.
