It's official: Smartphones will need to have replaceable batteries by 2027
Do you miss phones with replaceable batteries? By 2027, you won't anymore because, by law, almost every smartphone will have them again.
TL;DR
- The European Council has ended its adoption procedure for rules related to phones with replaceable batteries.
- By 2027, all phones released in the EU must have a battery the user can easily replace with no tools or expertise.
- The regulation intends to introduce a circular economy for batteries.

oh yeah, we know. the problem is, 80% of the country is a rural population and a lot of them just want to "own those libs in budapest" even if they fuck their own life up. that's why the same right-wing party has stayed in government for 13 years now with no change on the horizon.
we tried last year. like really tried, even the left and the far right have made an alliance with one goal: topple this shitty party, everything else is secondary. it didn't even make a dent.
at this point, i see no chance that our eu parliament reps won't be from the same party either. i'll vote against them for sure, but it's just inevitable at this point.
Vote in what exactly? I’m lost.
European Elections are on June 2024.
Thanks, it’ll actually be my first time voting on these elections.
