Brazilian state agency Procon - SP today asked Apple to better explain why it has implemented power management features in older
iPhones and how Brazilian iPhone users can obtain battery replacements, reports Reuters.In a blog post on the Procon - SP website, the agency says that it sent a notice to Apple on Wednesday demanding information on how iPhone customers can
replace their batteries, what
models are included in the action, how long replacements will be available for, and the cost in Brazil.
The report notes this could have an adverse affect on sales of the iPhone X and other newer
models, as customers opt to
replace the degraded batteries in the
iPhones they already own instead of purchasing new devices.
