ok this is weird.
I actually do have to buy a new phone, but wont be buying the iphone 7. My 5C is not working properly, and the screen broke again 2 weeks ago.
Now... Since the apple keynote started 20 minutes ago... several apps are just crashing. It's like Apple is in control of my phone and trying to make me think I need to get rid of it and buy a new phone (which I have to anyways).
I wouldn't be surprised if they had a code to make devices start behaving in weird ways at a particular time to start making people feel like they need to get a new phone.

- I've experienced planned obsolescence with regards to their Macbook batteriesprophetone
- And yes my iPad 2 for instance, It has the same apps it always had for years but it is so sluggish now and crashes often. It never did this out of the box.prophetone
- It's difficult to prove premature planned obsolescence but even if you could the excuse could very well be a safety issue... in the case of the batteries anywayprophetone
- the trick is never to update the iOS - stick with the one it came with. my iphone5 is as good today as it was then. (although i think i did upgrade to ios7)hans_glib
- But having the Macbook report a straight up 100% dead battery and seeing the opposite with an actual physical test of the battery cells makes you wonder...prophetone
- @hans_glib even when I updated that iPad 2 to iOS 9 it was happy as can be... snappy. It gets very limited use over years and has become almost unusable nowprophetone
