Apple has apologized for slowing down older iPhones and temporarily dropped prices for a replacement battery, but will it be enough to make customers happy? Zac Hall, Editor at 9to5Mac joins Cheddar to discuss.
The tech company said it issued a software update that slowed down older phones in some situations to extend battery life. Along with Apple's apology, the company also promised a new iOS update to fix the software issues. Hall says this blunder is worse than 2010's "antenna-gate", in which iPhone 4 users had issues with dropped calls.
In addition, Hall makes a few predictions on when the HomePod will be available for purchase and new phones on the docket for 2018. He talks about what investors are looking for in 2018 and how Apple will continue to dominate the tech space.
