    Both my samsung phones as well as all the lgs ive had used lipo batteries. Both lgs and one samsung (so far) have swollen enough to push the display out of the bezel.

      What the hell are you doing to your phones? Across all the different brands I’ve used with lipo batteries in the past ~20 years, I’ve never had one get swollen.

        they do that with time, it’s inevitable, heat and cycling will also cause it to happen over time.

      please inform me whether those batts said “li-ion” on them, or “LiPo” on them, because those are different.

      Most modern phones, to my knowledge, use li-ion batts.

      LiPo has sort of become a catch all for lithium batts, but it’s not accurate.

        They were all non removable so nothing to see but the swollen cases.

          they were probably li-ion batteries then.

          Technically LiPo is a subset of li-ion, but it’s still a subset, so.
