Fuck the EU. I hope we still get good small phones and EU assholes only get big bloated as fuck ones.
This is EU actively making my phone more shitty.
How old are you? Small phones with replacement batteries have always existed. Batteries being removable has nothing to do with size, that's industry propaganda.
If anything, phones have gotten BIGGER as batteries became non-removable. But that's just because people buy big phones more.
Name one lmao
MOST flagship Android phones 10 years ago were small and had removable batteries. The Galaxy S5 was the last flagship from Samsung to do it, to name one.
They've always been bigger. You show me a phone with a removable battery and I'll show you a phone that's smaller with similar features from a close time period. Might even be ip68 to boot.
Your logic is flawed. Phones have only gotten BIGGER as removable batteries have been phased out. Nearly every phone today is huge, and hardly any have removable batteries.
The Galaxy S series had removable batteries until the S6 dropped the feature. And the S5 was IP67 rated. Small, waterproof phones with big, removable batteries are entirely possible. You're just falling for the propaganda.
HTC droid Incredible.
Who says there can't be SFF phones with replacable batteries. In fact, old samsung phones had replacable batteries.
And they were bigger than comparable htc's, were flimsy, and ip68 was a pipe dream.
Search for galaxy s5. And there were plenty of other ones too. Or you just forgot the /s
What about the small phones back in the 00's with replaceable batteries?
All of them bigger than integrated solutions.
