please make the battery/hardware repairable

That would be nice but I do wonder how much the Graphene project is going to be involved in hardware decisions if it is a major OEM. Sounds like it'll be more just a phone where the OEM provides support of bootloader unlocks and installation of graphene

batteries and hardware (motherboards, cameras, etc) on most phones and laptops are achievably replaceable. not "I'm boarding a plane better change it in my lap" but like half an hour of work, which isn't that big of a drag every year or so. watch any youtube video tutorial to get a better sense. I'm not saying grams can pull it off, but if you're even tangentially tech literate, it's doable.

yeah, just make sure you've got a heat gun, a suction cup, a pry tool, and three different kinds of screwdrivers.

Little kit from ifixit has this minus the heatgun for 12$ or something. Advertised as an add-on for many orders.
