How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? - eviltoast

I have a feeling they’re gonna charge like $200 to $400 more then blame the regulators.

    I never said it was impossible. I said it was harder to both make them replaceable and water resistant. And they won’t bother to do both for 99% of models, they’ll just drop the water resistance to comply with replaceable battery requirements. There might be a few that they bother and then sell at inflated prices.
