Claims Now Being Accepted In Apple 'Batterygate' Lawsuit

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- If you owned an older iPhone that was part of Apple's "Batterygate" scandal, you could get up to $500.

A class action settlement has been reached for lawsuits involving the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6S, 6S Plus, SE, 7 and 7 Plus.

It's been more than three years since Apple confirmed it slowed down the performance of these models to reduce power demands.

Apple agreed to pay roughly $25 per device, however, if the number of people that make claims is low, each person could get as much as $500.
