US-based iPhone users are finally getting long-awaited payments to compensate them for Apple's decision to throttle the performance of iPhones with degraded batteries.

Apple agreed to settle with iPhone users in March 2020, but class-action lawsuits and settlements often take years to be resolved and paid out. This case took a few years because the settlement's court approval was temporarily vacated on appeal but later reinstated.

The settlement was for a minimum of $310 million and a maximum of $500 million, including attorney's fees of $80.6 million and the costs of distributing the settlement fund.
