    This has been an Android "feature" for a couple of years now at least. So what? Google gonna israelitegle. Apple gonna Crapple. Mobile OSes are cancer, except for Sailfish.

      android has employed "power saving" features for many years, but nothing this cringeworthy.

      >is entirely optional
      >works fine and fulfills its purpose when enabled and available
      Who the fuck cares about this?

      Use "unclean" energy, Hawking.
      >>is entirely optional
      And default, meaning maybe a few dozen people would've known it exists if not for news stories about it.
      >fulfills its purpose
      Of punishing you for living in an area with high energy demand, yes.

      Unfortunately the only consoomer type that would rise to it will find this to be a good feature

    >Improves the lifespan of your battery by allowing you to charge it slower when you know you won't urgently need in the next 2 or 3h while also promoting green energy and it's all in a toggle option
    So how is this a bad thing?

    Yeah those 10 Watts are going to make a real difference.

    They should unironically so it with electric cars though.
    If you only drive 30km per day on a 400km range you don't have to charge every night so why not wait for a night with plenty of green solar energy?

      That already exists. You get cheaper electricity when you allow it.

      This feature is for reducing your carbon footprint, so it probably doesn't care about nuclear.

    This is fucking retarded, actually maintaining the feature at all has an energy cost that probably even outweigh any benefits.

      There is existing infrastructure for this, so it may only take very little extra.

    >Pushing for "green charging" while trying to make wireless charging the only option on the iPhone
    What a bunch of fucking apes. The most efficient wireless charging is only ~60% efficient. Better yet, they could be more "green" by offering replacement parts or not slowing their phones down after a year.

    Because they don't RTFM.

    I didn't even notice this at first. They even went so far as adding the info on the battery level / charge chart to tell you when it is doing it.
    It only kicks on for me at like midnight, while I am passed out and it doesn't matter. Doesn't do it if I have to top off during the day.

    "Battery health depleting too fast, Apple BAD!"
    Brings forth optimized charging to slow battery deterioration.
    >USERS FUMING

    Brings on a new way of charging that tries to utilize subjectively cleaner energy during long duration charges, such as while you are sleeping (AKA, when it doesn't fucking matter anyway).
    >Apple BAD!
    >Users fuming
    >Applel shut off my phone's charging capabilities!

    Man, people are idiotic.

    If Samshit did this >users REJOICE!
