Apple agreed to pay $ 500 million in the lawsuit filed on the allegation that it deliberately slowed down older phone models. The company will pay $ 25 to customers with iPhone 6, 6S, 7 and SE phones on demand.
According to information from foreign sources, the Apple company admitted that in 2017, it went to slowing performance on old-fashioned devices on the grounds of ‘avoiding unexpected shutdowns’, after which it was sued by some customers. The company has agreed that it is responsible for the agreement reached with consumer lawyers.
The famous technology firm went to a $ 29 discount in battery changes after accepting its error. However, a lot of people applied to consumer lawyers stating that they spent hundreds of dollars in the process, bought new phones and were victims.
Although the company did not accept its mistake, the company chose to compromise with its consumer lawyers and promised to pay up to $ 500 million, provided that $ 93 million was given to lawyers.
As per the agreement, customers with iPhone 6, 6S, 7 and SE model phones will be able to get a $ 25 refund from the company if they request it. (IHA)
