Prepare your iPhone 18 Pro Max to ship

Interesting that it purposefully seems to burn compute cycles to discharge faster on purpose (it says that it’ll get warm while discharging).

I suspect that basically nobody will ever follow these instructions, though.

USPS has just introduced a $50 “misuse of hazmat labeling” fee with supporting context that could infer a much stronger parcel scanning process behind the scenes (since it’s presented as a ‘you wasted our time’ fee). I would hesitate to say that nobody will ever follow these instructions. More likely, someone scalper will take a sob story to the press after USPS makes an example out of them.

Anyone sending their 18 Pro Max to Apple’s central repair depot will, or they won’t get the label, it seems.

If the phone won’t boot, wonder if shipping is potentially illegal, and Apple would mandate driving it to a store?

How is this new? There are plenty of Chinese phones with high capacity batteries. My current Xiaomi 15t pro as a example has a 5500mah, 3.93vdc battery (that's 21.62wh). And they just all shipping fine...
