You are seriously going with that? all manufacturers (apple, Samsung, Google,.....) state lithium ion batteries last 2-3 years. Have you noticed Samsung comes with user replaceable batteries? wouldn't need that if you didn't need to replace batteries. This is not an Apple issue, its physics, chemistry, etc.
And yet the fact remains, why is Apple the only one who needs to do this yet I've heard nothing from the android size. If you can present a factual argument other than "rlly guys", I'd like to hear it. I am genuinely curious to see sources that show the same issue on android.

I'm sure you can google as well as I can. I did find the following, which show, yes throttling does occur on Samsung, yes old batteries are a problem..so old batteries will cause throttling as heat builds up, and batteries are a problem in Android.
Would be nice to hear from an expert. But please, the absence of facts you haven't searched for is not the same thing as absence of facts.
"Galaxy s7 thermal throttling [ Edited ]
I recently bought a galaxy s7 edge and noticed the phone significantly slows down as it warms up (40% lower performance at 38*C). Is there any way to disable thermal throttling without rooting, bootloader is locked. I can barely hold 40 fps in some games and I'd prefer having the phone slightly hot to the touch than dealing with frame drops." us.community.samsung.com
"For example, both the S5 and Note 4 last significantly longer on a charge than the other phones in this chart, but that’s only because they have to throttle back the GPU frequency to mitigate heat buildup. The iPhone 6, meanwhile, exhibits the opposite behavior; it runs at max performance for the duration of the test, never throttling, and drains the battery faster.
Neither S6 model does well in this test. They both experience thermal throttling, offering similar levels of performance to the S5 but with significantly less battery life. The HTC One (M9) also offers better performance with similar battery life." tomshardware.com
"Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 LTE Thermal throttling
Hello
When I play games on my tablet they run smootly for about 3-5 min if I run on the lowest brigthness.
But then the tempeture goes over 50-52 degrees on the cpu and it goes down from 100% usage to 70-80% and the game starts lagging. I have tested this in a few games and even in 1 my old ipad for like 5 years ago can play without problem.
anyone know how to fix this?" us.community.samsung.com
"Galaxy S4 reboots, battery percentage drops
Problem: My Samsung Galaxy S4 keeps turning off on its own all the time, it could be on 100% and turns off. When it did turn back on the phone would no longer be on 100%, it could be in the 60’s sometimes less, sometimes more. When the phone turns off, it goes to the start up screen then goes blank again. This process repeats over and over. To make it go back to normal I would have to plug it into a charger and it would turn on but now when I plug the charger in the same thing happens when the start up screen shows. Why is this happening?
........However, if the problem occurs many times a day, say 5 times or more, it surely is a battery issue. Since you couldn’t get a new phone, buying a new battery is your best bet to fix this problem." thedroidguy.com
"Phone shutting down with charged battery
Hello, my Note Edge has recently been shutting down with no warning. This is happening even when the battery is fully charged. When I plug the phone into three charger (only use the Samsung charger) the phone shows o% battery then immediately shows the icon turning green and going back to showing the charge (for example 90%) that my phone had before it shut down. What is confusing to me is that my problem is not a battery that is draining too fast, it's just dying abruptly and reading zero when in fact phone is charged.
I'm careful to close all apps when not in use, optimize the battery by Samsungs suggestions, and even restrict background data from my settings. I have not downloaded any new apps that may be causing this, at least to the best of my knowledge.
The phone is over two years old but I'm trying to hold off till the new Galaxy is available. If anyone has advice for me I would be very appreciative. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
........Re: Phone shutting down with charged battery
I would suggest never buying a Samsung phone again. As you can see they broke all models of the note 4 and note edge with a firmware update and refuse to acknowledge or fix the phones they broke. All this just in time for the Note 8 release. There has been a class action lawsuit started about this. soon as I get a response from the two law firms that are handling it I will post the info.
