Apple already gives good battery life in its devices whether it is iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch or any other device. Yet in the past, Apple has been accused of slowing down the phone by using the battery that quickly loses life in its iPhone models. For this, the company had paid $ 113 million (about Rs 819 crore) only to solve its ‘battery gate’ case. Whereas Apple says that this was done only to maintain the battery capacity for a long time.
Since then, the company has also started giving features like battery and performance management to its users in its models. Some of the common features that Apple recommends users to use on its own are keeping the latest software updated, protecting against high ambient temperatures.
