mm maybe. connectors should definitely have a tiny magnet, but its still rare...
Yeah, I support that decision :P
I personally don't see that much value in water proofing, I've never came across a situation where I thought it would have been rather helpful to have water proofing. Maybe I've just been very lucky hehe
Exactly! It bums me so much that the vast majority of the money you spent buying the device and of the money spent making the device is completely thrown out because you can't replace a little component that was perfectly replaceable 10 years ago.... 🙄
Naturally. Just a shame it isn't a bit earlier :P
Yes, for sure. My last phone lasted two months shy of 6 years, and was replaced because of a touch issue (a little strip across the screen no longer acted on touch, which made typing and other stuff completely impossible), and was only "fine" in regards to battery because it was a huge one to begin with (+4Ah for a 5" screen). The battery was definitely way worse than original, but still on par with some new phones today lol
They could certainly do better, but they do quite a bit yeah.
Good question. I'm sure there's still ways to make them water proof, even if it requires some little screws. Still, I'd rather have replaceable battery rather than total water tight casing.
They sure will fight it. The main counter-argument I see is water proofing, but I believe I've seen a phone with good proofing but still accessible. Don't remember the brand and model though.
Yeah. And battery issues are one of the biggest sources of new phone purchases. This is going to help reduce e-waste for sure.
I was not talking about running the battery down to 0, that's no good for li-ion batteries either. I was talking about the exact, opposite, reaching 100% and staying there for hours on end (which happens during the night). With AccA I can set an upper limit.
Yeah, agreed
