You could easily spend a half hour getting it replaced for the battery+ $10 in labor if you actually cared and weren't trying to score internet points.
But people here will bitch like it's impossible to have a guy look at your phone for a half hour.
Why are you bitching about people wanting better, more servicable products? Fucking insanity...
I don't think they are better 🤷♂️ and it takes 10 minutes to replace a battery every 3 years.
Most others didn't either. It's some nerd rallying call. It'll change nothing consumption wise. And I'm forced to fall with the downgrade.
Oh ok, so you're just too stupid to understand the benefits of self-repair. Got it.
You can replace the battery. It takes 10 minutes if you bother to learn. Nobody is forcing anybody to make solid back phones either.
Unhinged shit.
What are you, a corpo shill?
Next time you service anything yourself, remember that it could’ve just as easily been designed such that you would be forced to pay some randy to do it for you. Really stop and think if that would be preferable, and then consider that you’re arguing against right to repair here.
I'd rather it built in not something to wear out. I'm glad you have decided my meds are anti right to repair. Good Lord lol.
So idk where your get your stuff serviced, but, where I am in the US it will cost at least 100 dollars to replace this part. If the glass back breaks in the process, a lot more. Phone companies have shown we can manufacturer phones with same quality, same features, same durability, and still have a serviceable battery. We can screw instead of glue the thing together.
Paying someone 10 dollars isn't bad, but, thats typically not the case. As I mentioned about the glass backs they can break easily no matter how good you are.
