Many users of older iPhone have noticed their phones slow down more and more as each new more expensive version of the iPhone is introduced.
One might suspect the slowdown of older phones is due in part to code bloat in new versions of the system as well as Apple using the slowdown to encourage purchase of new phones.
But no, the slowdown is considered by Apple to be a feature -- slowing down the phone as the batter ages and has less capability. Make sense but why not have the phone notify you to replace the battery instead of slowing down more and more.
