> The new July Android update adds "battery management features" that will make the phone unusable.

I didn't get from the article how the update will make the phone unsable.

If its like the 4A updates, your phone will charge rapidly and discharge rapidly. And half the time the phone is charged it will say 100% and then go to 5%.
