iPhone owners who take a class action lawsuit against Apple for allegedly slowing phones down to force users to buy the latest models will get their payments. According to the latest information, the judge ordered Apple to start payments.Apple claimed it was a precaution.
The settlement agreement received court approval in 2020, and now iPhone owners will receive about $65 each from Apple three years later. The lawsuit against Apple was filed after the company admitted in 2017 that iOS was slowing down older iPhone models. Apple apologized for this action, and then offered a software update and new batteries to iPhone owners.
At the same time, Apple denied accusations that its actions were illegal. Because the company claimed that the slowdown is a mandatory measure to prevent the iPhone from turning off automatically in some tasks. The settlement agreement applies to iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus and first-generation iPhone SE owners who filed for compensation before October 2020.
