Legal Department Applu has its hands full this year, as it has had to deal with a really large number of lawsuits this year. More than 60 of them concern the alleged intentional slowing down of older models. The company was aware of the dissatisfaction of its customers and decided to respond accordingly. It launched a battery replacement program and with an update to the operating system iOS 11.3 also came with the Battery Health feature.

The lawsuit also seeks damages in minia minimum of $75.
