What you just read above is true! If you think your Iphone is the only one that’s running slower then you’re not insane, because Apple itself admitted in a statement saying that it deliberately slows down old iphones and here’s what the company has to say.
Apple on Wednesday said a product highlight released a year ago influences your iphone to work all the more gradually to offset issues with its expiring lithium particle battery. As batteries get more older, they don’t hold their charges and the newer batteries, and can have more awful issues when the charge is low or the temperature is frosty!
So it's true Apple intentionally slow down old iPhones. Proof: My iPhone 6 was bought 3years ago and recently got really slow. APP 'CPU DasherX' shows iPhone CPU is under clocked running at 600MHz. After a iPhone battery replacement. CPU speed resumed to factory setting 1400MHz. pic.twitter.com/pML3y0Jkp2

The againg battery implies your iphone could experience difficulty working or may surprisingly close down, as happened to the iPhone 6 and 6S a year ago. The processors in those gadgets needed to hit quicker speeds, yet their batteries couldn’t deal with the request, inciting a few iphones to just turn themselves off.
To address that, Apple’s iOS programming, beginning with a year ago’s iOS 10.2.1, included better power administration abilities, the organization says. The working framework backs off your gadget to keep it from closing down, Apple says, yet just in instances of cool temperature, a low battery charge or exceptionally old batteries.
A year ago’s product connected to the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, 6S Plus and SE. The current year’s iOS 11.2 stretched out the element to the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. It will be connected to other Apple gadgets later on.
The announcement from Apple came because of a report from prior this week from Primate Labs, the organization behind the Geekbench processor benchmarking programming. John Poole, originator of the association, said in an article that processors in iPhones back off and diminish in execution as batteries age and lose limit. Poole clarified that clients anticipate that their telephones will play out the same paying little mind to how old the battery is, however his tests showed that wasn’t the situation.
iPhone users have since quite a while ago griped their gadgets appear to back off when new models are released. Some have said they trust it to be exertion by Apple (and other tech organizations) to intentionally hamper the execution keeping in mind the end goal to motivate users to purchase new models. Apple has since quite a while ago denied this declaration.
For a few people, the answer for a slower, more established iPhone might refresh its battery as opposed to buying a fresh out of the box new gadget. Apple charges $79 to replace the battery of an iPhone that is never again secured by a guarantee!
