Hello,

First of all, the whole "replace the battery on older 6/6+ iPhones to restore the performance" IT'S A COMPLETE SCAM.
I have replaced my battery on my good ol' 6+ and guess what. The lousy crappy performance was still there. Apps takes forever to load, writing a text message on Line, FB Messenger, Wazzup or similar it's extremely laggy with letters popping only after a couple of seconds after they've got typed, movie performance got very choppy, etc, etc. The IOS 11 it's a complete disaster for older phones!!
Now I am on the Beta 3 for IOS 12, and let me tell you, since Apple is lying again, THERE ISN'T ANY IMPROVEMENT in performance over the IOS 11. NONE!! Only the camera app opens slightly faster from the lock screen, but NOT from the main menu. The overall performance seems even worst than the one I have with IOS 11 and 70% battery capacity.

I am curious if any other users experienced the same thing, and also I would really like to ask something:
By the love of God, is it any chance or any Tip/Trick or chance to be able to downgrade the phone to IOS 9 or IOS 10 ??????
Thanks!

Tell me why my iPhone 8 - Apple A11 hexa-core, 2048MB, Geekbench 3 = 10291 MC, is stuck at iOS 16.7.1
But my iPad 6 - Apple A10 quad-core, 2048MB, Geekbench 3 = 6111 MC, can do iPadOS 17.0.3

The iPhone is more powerful than the iPad, but Apple has crippled the iPhone against upgrades.
