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

    I don’t get why everyone here’s shitting on Apple specifically. When’s the last time a major Android phone company made replaceable batteries? A decade?

      It used to be commonplace, alongside several other consumer-friendly features that slowly got stripped away as Android phones became more Apple-like to compete. That's why.

      My current phone, the LG v20 was I think the last " one. Looks like it came out in the end of 2016 so not quite a decade, but it's been quuuite a long time.

      Apple is probably the most popular phone manufacturer of users' phones here

      Got fond memories of buying a little LCD screen for one of those sliding phones back in ye olden days and just slapping the new LCD in with 0 tools and training lol.
