All smartphones, including iPhones, must have replaceable batteries by 2027 in the EU::undefined
Apple in 2027: This is not a battery, it’s a…umm … Ultra High Density Low Current Super Capacitor.
Looking forward to seeing If companies will just do the bare minimum to pass or if we’ll see some actual innovation. It would be cool to be able to buy spare batteries, that are quick to replace and easy to carry around along with a charging station or something so you can always have a full battery with you.
I bet The Apple battery, just a replacement or a dedicated module like I said above, will be starting at like $249
Quality power banks have been around for years.
This is just extra steps to a fat phone.
Fuck the EU. I hope we still get good small phones and EU assholes only get big bloated as fuck ones.
This is EU actively making my phone more shitty.
What about the small phones back in the 00’s with replaceable batteries?
All of them bigger than integrated solutions.
Who says there can’t be SFF phones with replacable batteries. In fact, old samsung phones had replacable batteries.
And they were bigger than comparable htc’s, were flimsy, and ip68 was a pipe dream.
