The Apple argument is ridiculous. They are making phones for how many years? Over 10. Yet, their engineers have not figured out a solution to have a removable battery and have it waterproof? Give me a break. Apple is greedy as fuck, but that’s not a news.
Hahahahhahahahah
Deep breath
Hahahahhahahahahahaha
Since when did Apple do comedy?
Apple is making the wrong argument here. They already make an external battery pack that attaches magnetically. They also already offer battery replacement by a tech through service. They should be pointing at that, rather than saying they can’t figure out a way to redesign their phone.
I’m honestly amazed their PR people couldn’t spin it better. Truth be told, if it gets legislated then they’ll figure out a way to do it, or will make some design compromises. It won’t be the end of the world.
What they mean to say is
A potential failure point in our business model
Which of course, is planned obsolescence.
So a company that loves making phones obsolete just to force people to buy more, doesn’t like reparability? Who could have guessed…
