After the batterygate, or the slowdown of the iPhone due to battery issues, Applehad to go out to fight. This great "shit" of those with the bitten apple is causing many demands to come from different countries of the world. Spain joins the demands and Facua has denounced Apple before the Prosecutor's Office, for slowing down the iPhone deliberately and without notifying the consumer.
A storm that continues and looks set to last a long time. We, as always, will keep you informed about it.

He tells us that when he read one of our articles on batterygate, where we commented on the plan launched by Cupertino to change batteries, he called the nearest Apple Store to make an appointment, went there and, after waiting a few hours to the change, his iPhone 6 with new battery worked perfectly again.

How to change the iPhone battery for €29:
As we already mentioned, the iPhone that can take advantage of this Apple plan are the following:
- iPhone 6
- 6 Plus
- 6s
- 6s Plus
- 7
- 7 Plus
- SE
The iPhone 8, 8 PLUS and iPhone X, remain to be confirmed if they can be adhere to this plan. Although being new terminals, they do not enter it.
After confirming that you have one of these devices, you must make an appointment at the nearest Apple Store using your iPhone or by calling.
Once obtained, go to it and, after a while of waiting (in Madrid María waited 3 hours), they will return the iPhone with the battery change done.
Ask Apple support to change the battery:
Apple Phone Support
If you don't have an Apple Store nearby, you'll have to call Apple support to request the change.
They will do the same for you, although the waiting time will be longer since you have to send the mobile by mail. This will make you run out of terminal for a few days.
The waiting time between sending it and receiving it, Apple has informed us that it is approximately 7 days.
Apple recommendations after changing the iPhone battery:
After changing the battery, Apple informs us that it gives us 8 months warranty. They also warn us that if we notice any anomaly in the mobile, we notify them.
Another thing they emphasize is that we reset the iPhone completely to factory settings. This is logical since they want to prevent errors in iOS,zombie processes, etc. from affecting the performance of the mobile.
And you, are you going to take advantage of this plan to change the battery?
