Most likely, you already know about Apple’s dubious decision to add a feature in iOS 10.2.1 that slows down older iPhones in order to avoid their sudden disconnections under heavy load.

This feature is in Phone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone SE (iOS 10.2.1 and later), iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus (iOS 11.2 and later).

If you have one of these models, then it would not hurt to check the status of your battery. There are several ways to do this. Read more about them in our article.

If your battery power drops below 80% ofinitial, it needs to be replaced. However, we recommend that you wait while Apple releases the iOS update, which will provide more information on battery status.

Perhaps the reason for the slow operation of your iPhone is not in the battery. If the smartphone is running stably slowly, then perhaps the battery is not to blame.

Some users helped restore the iPhone, after which it again began to work quickly.

We even recommend setting it up as new. This can solve all the problems. Moreover, recovery helps solve many system problems. Older models like the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have survived at least two major iOS updates, and recovery can help get rid of unnecessary residual files.

This is not the most convenient method, but recovery is free, so it’s definitely worth a try. If it does not help, you will have to change the battery.
