Apple Agrees to $14.4M Settlement in Canadian 'Batterygate' Lawsuit

Eligible iPhone users in Canada, except Quebec, can claim compensation for alleged device throttling.

  • A B.C. Supreme Court judge has approved a $14.4 million settlement from Apple to eligible Canadian iPhone users over the 'Batterygate' controversy.
  • The settlement covers iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, SE, 7, and 7 Plus models with specific iOS versions installed before December 21, 2017.
  • Eligible claimants can receive between $17.50 and $150, depending on the number of applicants.
  • Apple denies any wrongdoing but agrees to the settlement, which is not an admission of guilt.
  • The settlement is available to residents in all Canadian provinces except Quebec, where a separate case is ongoing.
