Do you suffer slow syndrome iPhone? – Newspaper AM

Every time Apple launches a new team to market, Google searches for the words “slow iPhone” increase, at least that’s what I mentioned analysis firm, Statista.

The results , which spread in the New York Times, prove that more than one user believes his team every certain time periods that coincide with the launch of Apple seasons slows. This gives rise to speculation, as some point out that this may be a deliberate action by the company to encourage the purchase of its new model

“Many of us know the feeling. A day that we are perfectly happy with the smartphone we’ve been using for the past 12 months and the next day, after we have seen a colleague showing his new device, ours suddenly feel inadequate, bulky and slow, “says the firm.

Statista turned to Google Trends, which is responsible for measuring the words are sought on the platform, and found that the words “slow iPhone” (Slow iPhone) were a constant. These numbers coincide with the days when announcements of the new generation of iPhones were made. The strange thing is that these increases occur suddenly

The company explains that there are two possible justifications for these peaks. The first is the psychological phenomenon described above. The second explanation, the most plausible in his opinion, is that the iPhone launches often coincide with the launch of a new version of iOS, the mobile operating system from Apple.

“Although the Cupertino always have made iOS is compatible with the “old” iPhone, models the new systems tend not to work as well in hardware older, for example an iPhone 4S. Therefore, it seems plausible that when you upgrade to the new version iOS, performance problems begin and users turn to Google to find out what is wrong with their phones. “

Sendhil Mullainathan, a professor of economics at Harvard University had already studied this phenomenon and explains it as follows: “Imagine someone says that there is a buzz in the office until that moment I had not noticed but now can not hear more than the hum Perhaps this is the digital equivalent of that experience Listen…. on a new release it makes you contemplate the need for a faster phone. And suddenly goes notes how slow your old iPhone “.

Do you think your iPhone 6 is slower since leaving the 6S?
