Apple to Pay Up to $150 to iPhone Owners for Slowing Performance

Apple will pay up to $14.4 million CAD to settle a class-action lawsuit in Canada over intentionally slowing down older iPhones. Eligible claimants can expect to receive between $17.50 and $150, depending on the number of claims submitted. The lawsuit was brought after it was discovered that Apple was purposefully slowing down some older iPhone models to extend battery life. All Canadian residents, except those from Quebec, who owned certain iPhone models before December 21, 2017, may be eligible for the settlement.
