> Usually with iPhone/iPod Video upgrades, getting the latest version of iOS with an older device can significantly degrade performance.

Is this claim based on anecdotal evidence or some other source?

There was a class action lawsuit filed just a few months after an upgrade was released:

Edit: I'm not sure if this has been fixed with the later iOS 9 versions.

Anecdotal. But literally everyone I know says this including me.

Probably anecdotal, but I've had the same experience.

It affects iPad, too.
