Texas has joined the list of States that have decided to take legal action against Apple because of its deliberately slowing down old iphone phones, forcing users to buy newer phone models.
According to the British Daily Mail site, Mark Miller, Chris Spearman and Stanford have raised the case against Apple, accusing the American company of misleading customers.
The lawsuit said: "Apple has promised its users that iOS 10 and iOS 11 updates will bring new upgrades to iphone 6 and 7 phones, which would improve the performance of those devices, and encouraged customers were strongly to accept those updates, but Apple did not tell their customers that they had intentionally designed those updates to slow down the hardware processing speed To correct the battery defect, Apple then happily got the money of its customers when they were forced to buy new iphone phones, because they were dissatisfied with their current phone performance. "
The decision came one day after the US company issued an unprecedented apology after it confessed to manipulating the old Avon phones.
All U.S. lawsuits--filed in the U.S. county courts in California, New York and Illinois--seek to take collective action to represent millions of iphone users at the national level.
