Apple launched a campaign to replace old batteries with new ones a month earlier than the stated deadline. The company offers to change the battery for iPhone 6 and later devices for $ 29 dollars instead of $ 79. About the beginning of the action reports Tjournal.

According to The Verge, the battery can be replaced if the smartphone loses 80% charge faster than when purchased, and at the same time suffered at least 500 charge cycles. Consultants in the stores will conduct a diagnostic test to exclude other damage or third-party components from the smartphone. In the event that interference with the inside of the iPhone is detected, the replacement of the battery will be denied.

As noted by the site 9to5Mac, some buyers have already been refused battery replacement because they were holding a charge without any problems. Apple's offer to replace the battery at a discount will continue from January to December of the year 2018.

At the beginning of 2018, the company will release an IOS software update with new features that will allow users to more clearly see the status of the phone and how the gadget's performance changes.

What is wrong with iPhone batteries:

• December 11 Reddit told that iPhones are starting to work better if you replace the worn out battery;
• 21 December Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), confessedthat deliberately slows down iPhones to increase the life of the device;
