Sweeping new law will force replaceable batteries on smartphones in the EU
(www.androidauthority.com)
We need this everywhere...
Is there an example of a waterproof phone with replaceable battery?
Not that I'm aware of, but I've lost 0 phones to water and many phones to failing batteries, so I'll take that trade.
The 2014 Samsung Galaxy S5 had a removable battery and IP67 rating.
I have Samsungs Xcover 5. It is IP68, and very user servicable. Toolless battery replacement.
pleaseeeeeeee bring this to the u.s. 🤞
I'm aware that this might be an incorrect generalization, but I do think that in general the EU gov takes more care about the EU people well-being than of corporations', while the US gov does the opposite. At least this is how I feel living in the EU.
