    we can do better than soldered batteries inside unopenable super thin phone cases. These companies have no motivation to innovate any sort of repairability, and now they will have it.

      Lol this is such bull shit

      It’s not about motivation it’s about need

      Nobody is clamoring for this accept the EU government and some right to repair fanatics who most likely don’t repair jack in their own lives and haven’t needed nor requested replacement smartphone batteries

      Because nobody needs them anymore lol. Market buddy if this was something important we’d be getting it
