Yes, truly a Festivus miracle...of common sense. People wise enough to not blow a minimum $1000 on a phone that makes it near impossible to close out apps and with a goofy notch as part of its style lines. Course $1000+ was reason enough and I could have stopped there.

This is the one with legs.  Though the iPhone 6/6+ aren’t new, some recently purchased phones saw the slowdowns while the battery still tested “good” at the Apple store (based on comments on the subject here over the last couple of days).   A judge will decide based on the preponderance of evidence, which is:

- a previously admitted battery flaw and replacement program
- a previous admission that the shutdown problem grew to affect other models
- a newly admitted slowdown algorithm that kicks in before the Genius Bar says the battery is eligible for replacement 
- performance results that are half of the phone’s performance when new

In this context it will be very difficult for Apple to claim their motivation was user experience, since it sucks anyway at half-speed.
