Hi,

it will be good if Apple give us an options like this in a Battery settings;

  • Auto (default)
    Auto mode will choose automatically the best option.

  • Battery friendly
    If youre experienced unexpected shutdown this was the best option for you. Your iPhone's Cpu Throttle it self for best battery life. (Your iPhone will work slow.)

  • Performance
    Your iPhone will work faster. But you may experience unexpected shutdowns. If your iPhone shutdown himself unexpectedly this mode change it self to Battery friendly mode in a first boot and you cant change the Battery friendly mode until first full charge.

So what do you think? I think that will be great.
 
Hmm, maybe, but I just don't see Apple giving people the option to allow their phones to shutdown randomly. Rightly or wrongly, I think Apple still value a slow but reliable phone over a faster but unpredictable one. When I experienced random shutdowns in the past, I wasn't able to start the phone again without plugging in, which was a real inconvenience when out and about.

What they definitely do need to do, is provide more warnings and information about the battery. When a phone's battery is at such a point that the phone has to throttle itself (all the time, or occasionally) then the user must be warned and avised, and it must be visible in some area in Settings so it can be reviewed again. The user should know that replacing their battery is an option to improve performance and that it's (currently) not too expensive to do so.
