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

    True. I just don’t any use case for it especially since internationally mobile networks have converged on technology so if I go abroad I can use my own phone without fussing with a paper clip and nanosim at the airport

      I prefer traveling with a dual sim card slot, because you go to the airport and immediately buy a sim and pop it in.

      With esim I feel like your carrier back home can be more dickish, do you not have to contact them? I don't know how they work tbh

      If I could just add infinitely many esims I want from any country by only contacting new carriers then that would be cool.

        My carrier has good international roaming rates (fixed fee per day) which for a short trip is easier than getting a sim

        Edit: to clarify, esim or physical sim don’t matter because I just use international roaming which is like $5 per day in most places.

          Canadian carriers are the biggest fuckers and roaming rates are ridiculous.

          It's cheaper to buy a foreign sim and then roam in Canada. Some people buy American plans and then roam all the time, but I think they started cracking down on this.

            There’s a lot of free roaming in Canada and Mexico with american carriers
