Randall from Wireless Info sent us the news that Apple has acknowledged the iPhone battery issue is in fact a bug that will be fixed in a future software update. A few days ago, WI noticed that even after sitting in the charger for 12 hours, their iPhone battery gauges didn’t show a full charge. After conducting an casual survey, they found that the problem was widespread, and now Apple has confirmed the bug.

And since Apple says it’s just a firmware problem, soon




after the batteries should all be OK (although WI additionally says Apple is replacing faulty batteries anyway, so chances are that whether you want to replace your iPhone, you can still do that). At first, WI said that the non-charge-showing phones were operating on a shorter battery life, but after a few cycles apparently they’re running just as well.

So that’s one fix Apple can throw in the iPhone’s first big patch. What’s next?
