Apple's mistake was really that they didnt do proper load testing on their batteries. Had they shipped a battery that was capable of keeping up with the phone, this wouldn't have been a problem to begin with.

Instead, they pushed their users to buy new phones, or pricey fixes for a manufacturing mistake

How did you come to that conclusion, did Apple admit they did improper testing?

[CaptSpify]

Because we saw the evidence: The batteries they shipped started dying early. I'm willing to believe that they did do proper testing and ignored the results, but I'm not sure that's better.

I'm not a battery engineer, nor a battery tester, so I cannot comment on what a proper test would be, and if that would include testing the battery for extended period of time prior to releasing them to market.

But you don't need to be a battery engineer to understand statistics. If these batteries are dying early, then either Apple didn't do enough testing, they did and ignored the results.
