How to know if the performance of an iPhone has gone down 2018
The river sounded on the network and finally brought water from Cupertino: yesterday Apple confirmed that performance decreases in “old” iPhones in order to conserve the battery. But it is something that does not affect all units and we ourselves can know if our iPhone has been affected .
There are several ways to review the parties involved and several solutions according to what suits us or we want to spend. So we review what happened and propose some ways to check the status of the affected components and what it would cost to change the battery .
What has happened?
By way of brief summary this is what happened: a number of users of certain Apple smartphone models detected that they were slower , despite updating and trying to solve it in various ways. Some decided to go further with performance tests (benchmarks) and other measures trying to find an explanation that would later clarify the brand, putting the battery in the bank of the accused before Apple spoke.
Thus, what happens with the lower frequency of the processor is that the performance is lower, which results in lower scores in these tests. Something that the Reddit TeckFire user did in anticipation of Apple’s announcement and trying to check if the problem was a degraded battery. With this, his iPhone 6s gave a score of 1,466 / 2,512 in the test, and after replacing it with a new one gave 2526/4456. We can see more cases in the Apple support forums, like this thread about users with problems with the iPhone 6s.
Geekbench, who spoke in detail about the issue after having checked the performance of two of the susceptible models (an iPhone 6s and an iPhone 7) in different versions of iOS. What he saw is that according to his test there was a drop in performance in the versions of iOS 10.2.1 and 11.2.0 .
How much Apple is lowering the frequency of the processors in the affected iPhones? What you are seeing is a drop of around 50% of the processor’s usual working frequency, in some cases like the Twitter user @sam_siruomu something else.
What iPhones does it affect?
Are all “old” iPhones (that is, older than one or two years old) susceptible to these changes? No, as the company clarified yesterday. Apple explained that the update of the controversy decreases the frequency of the CPU in iPhones whose battery has suffered some degradation , in order to protect the device and its components, affecting the iPhone 6 , iPhone 6s , iPhone SE and soon iPhone 7 .
