Do you own an iPhone? Because I replaced my own battery with a non-OEM replacement and it works fine.

Yes I have owned many iPhones and I have known people who have bricked iPhones by installing non OEM batteries.

Maybe you got lucky or the manufacturer cheated and copied Apples chip. Probably the latter.

Which, good for the manufacturer, but kind of goes your whole ethos, doesn't it?

Regardless, none of this is really a secret. You can look it up. Its not a conspiracy - again, companies don't need a conspiracy to be pieces of shit. They can just be pieces of shit. You don't need to go bat for them buddy, I promise they don't care about you.

    Mostly it just betrays your lack of understanding of how any of this works.

    • Are you going to elaborate on that or are you just going to put out little quips that make you feel like a big man but don't actually mean anything?

      Again, this is documented, it's not really up for debate. Your denial of it or your strange religious relationship with Apple doesn't change any of that.

      And I haven't gotten any sort of response other than "uhh I know a guy!!" I mean, really? Can we at least pretend to try?
