Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), has a huge number of lawsuits filed only in the US because of it limiting iPhone performance, those from Cupertino officially admitting in December that they left customers with slower phones. After Apple announced that low-capacity batteries also affect iPhone performance, customers began to open lawsuits against Apple, and so far more than 60 actions have been registered in the US alone.
The number of lawsuits filed in the US is so large that the US district court decided to combine them all into one lawsuit that will have a collective decision for all clients. A court in Atlanta, Georgia, will decide if all the open lawsuits against Apple must be combined, but they would be tried in California, the state where the American company is based, but that will not happen immediately.
Apple - huge number of lawsuits due to the performance of the iPhone
The first lawsuits were opened against the Apple company already in December, and the USA is just one of the countries where those from Cupertino are being called to court by angry customers. In South Korea there is a collective lawsuit with over 500.000 customers demanding compensation from Apple, in France there is a criminal investigation against Apple, and in several other countries there are various lawsuits initiated against the Americans.
Apple has decided to substantially reduce the price of replacement batteries for the iPhone, and next month it will release iOS 11.3, which will allow you to disable the system that limits the performance of users' phones. Of course, the world will not stop, and the Apple company will have even more problems on its head, the whole decision to limit the performance without announcing the following customers will take a lot of money out of their pockets, but the reputation will remain intact, unfortunately.
