eu-cool obviously, but stuff like this is still neat sicko-jammin

Now it seems Apple will need to figure out how to allow access to the battery inside future iPhones, as will every other smartphone manufacturer.

Eat shit and drink piss, Apple. I have a desk drawer full of old phones with removable batteries, we had this shit figured out 20 years ago

    Who even cares about how sleek a phone is when the vast majority of people put it in a protective case anyway?

        I have a mophie case with a built-in backup battery for my S8 that can also charge wirelessly, a feature that I only used maybe... twice ever. Also it has a magnet to stick ny phone onto the fridge which won't hold because the phone and case are too heavy, so it'll just slide down the fridge door, lol

      My Xiaomi feels kickass during the time I take it out of its protective cover and put it in the phone holder on my electric scooter. Then after the map software guides me to my destination I take it out of its holder and put it right back in the cover.

      Because you have to. The cover provides valuable impact resistance for the time when you will inevitably drop the phone. Without it, you'll easily crack the screen.

        There are phone covers that are made to work with phone holders, at least for iphones. I guess maybe the holder can't fit on a scooter handle though.
