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

    mfw waterproof phones become a gasket nightmare with flaps over ports and shit again. Love to unplug my phone and have it go “uhm. Excuse me, you uhhh… Didn’t close the charging port flap all the way. Gonna need you to do that before you can call 911 because you’re bleeding out. Oh, lemme hit you with a quick speaker-clearing buzz to get that water out.”

      wrist watches have had the technology to be waterproof with moving components and reusable gaskets for decades.

      Just use screws instead of glue on the back panel and you’re golden.
