Default Apple throttled your iPhone by cutting its speed almost in HALF!

False. Android phones absolutely do throttle the CPU secretly with no
warning:

Well yes of course the CPU gets throttled to prevent overheating.


all types of throttling count.

Apple is throttling because the batteries seem to age in a way that
makes them incapable of powering the device properly at full speed and
the device then crashes and unexpectedly reboots or locks up.


all batteries age that way.

unless the device actively manages power to avoid it, there is a risk
of shutdown.

A number of Nexus 6P owners have reported an alarming battery problem
with their phones as of Android 7.0 being released for the handset,
which causes the phone to power down when the battery gauge still
shows anywhere from 10 to 60% battery remaining.

Interestingly, it seems the problem is most common in very cold
climates. These are where we see reports of phones dying at upwards
of 60% battery remaining indicated, which is obviously completely
ridiculous.
