近日，苹果公司开始向参与“电池门”事件并提交索赔的iPhone用户发放赔偿金。每台手机获赔92.17美元，约合人民币660元。2017年12月，大量美国用户指控苹果故意降低旧款iPhone性能，导致电池老化时意外关机。尽管苹果否认不当行为，但最终还是在2020年3月同意支付5亿美元（约合人民币35.8亿元）的和解金，其中3.1亿美元（约合人民币22.2亿元）用于向用户进行赔偿。
苹果公司在2017年2月发布的iOS 10.2.1系统中加入了限制某些iPhone型号性能的“电源管理系统”，但未向用户说明。受影响机型包括iPhone 6、iPhone 6 Plus、iPhone 6s、iPhone 6s Plus、iPhone 7、iPhone 7 Plus和iPhone SE。2020年10月6日之前，所有拥有受影响iPhone机型的美国用户均可提交赔付申请。
如今，赔偿金已陆续发放到位。部分用户可能收到总计近1000美元的赔偿。此次赔偿标志着“电池门”事件告一段落。

News content:
Apple has recently started distributing $92.17 settlements to iPhone users who participated in the “Batterygate” case and submitted claims. Each user will receive approximately 660 yuan in compensation. In December 2017, a large number of US users accused Apple of intentionally reducing the performance of older iPhone models, resulting in unexpected shutdowns when the battery aged. Although Apple denied any wrongdoing, it ultimately agreed in March 2020 to pay a $500 million (approximately 3.58 billion yuan) settlement, with $310 million (approximately 2.22 billion yuan) going towards compensating users.
In February 2017, Apple released the “Power Management System” in the iOS 10.2.1 system, but did not inform users. The affected iPhone models included iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, and iPhone SE. Before October 6, 2020, all US users with affected iPhone models could submit claims for compensation.
Now, the compensation funds have been distributed progressively. Some users may receive nearly $1,000 in total. This marks the end of the “Batterygate” incident.
