Roman0EU votes to mandate removable batteries in smartphones in a landslide; no more glued together junk!
ππ¦π«π§π²π±π°π²This is actually pretty crazy. Wonder how much it'll affect the overall design of modern smartphones. Will we witness the return of flagships with plastic back covers?

OtakebI hope everything just becomes brushed aluminum ffs. I hate all these glass back phones
wheelsPhones only have glass backs to let wireless charging work so I donβt see aluminium making a come back any time soon.
I hate wireless charging, though. It's inherently less efficient than wired, and you have less range of motion while charging. With a wire, I can still use my phone while it's plugged in. Wireless charging needs to go away imo.
Couldn't disagree more. Wireless charging with magnetic attachment like magsafe is a godsend for using my phone as a GPS. Just slap it onto it's magnetic wireless charger and go. Pull it off when done. A million times better than the old chargers that grip the phone and then also having to plug it in every time I need to drive somewhere, then undo it all when I get there.
