News & Reviews:   battery replacement

Just yesterday, we wrote about how Apple is using a "dormant software lock" on the Apple iPhone XR, iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max and this will cause a pop-up message about being unable to verify the battery and showing the battery health information. This only happens if the owner had it replaced from a third-party service provider, but out of the blue, Apple actually responded and gave their reasons.

Apple iPhone batteries aren't exactly a highlight when it comes to features, as the number figure is usually lower than Android's due to a different operating system functionality but that's a topic for another day. Today, we just learn from a YouTube channel, The Art of Repair that Apple has quietly restricted any battery replacement, unless if it's their own official ones.
