Hmm, just a bit skeptical about that. I'm pretty sure that peak "110%" usage rarely happens throughout the day; Maybe during video playback or gaming.

This is especially true since the iPhone 7, with its two low power cores who's entire purpose is to extend battery life.

IIUC the low power cores could be configured to both extend short-term battery life (daily cycles), and decrease long-term battery life.

The uproar is strictly re: long-term battery life.
