They did nothing wrong. But this should be a lesson to them, not to change things without making a big announcement.

It sounds like they did a whole lot of wrong. Amazing how they only “fix” the old battery issue when a new phone is released. Oh and it just so happens that the fix slows down the old phone making consumers buy new phones. If and they didn’t tell anyone.

Agree. Apple made a software change to keep battery life acceptable on aging iPhones while running the latest software. If they hadn’t done that then people would be screaming about having to pay to replace 3 year old batteries. OTOH people would be screaming if their aging iPhones couldn’t run the latest software.

Of course, it was a big fight when Apple first made phones without replaceable batteries. Replaceable batteries cost extra and makes the phones bigger and less robust.

No matter what Apple does, someone’s going to whine wanting something for nothing.

A little early to categorically say they did nothing wrong.
