There's a reason EU regulations forbid Apple selling any new iPhones prior
to the iPhone 15 in Europe (because of Apple's cheap iPhone batteries).

While almost every major Android brand easily proved to be *double* the
minimum battery life specified by the EU regulations, these latest iPhones
*barely* squeak by (which shows, as usual, how much *Apple hates you*).

Apple has no intention of allowing the consumer the luxury of long device
life without having to replace the battery just to keep the iPhone alive.
