The European Union is working on legislation that would require smartphone design to have easily replaceable batteries, but we doubt Apple would agree willingly.
I believe they might work for a bit of time, but with usage and eat they probably go bad and end up breaking. If you see on YouTube Rossman and others they’ve similar experiences.
I mean, that sucks for you but pull-tabs are considered ‘repair-friendly’ by pretty much everyone in the Right to Repair movement.

Rossman is a device repairman tbf, he sees the worst of the worst phones out there.
He seems mostly iPhones, and his experiences with pull tabs are similar to mine.
Well, it is what it is. Maybe they could use better glue, idk.
Or simply avid that BS all together and hold batteries in place with screws and/or a simple metal slab holding it in place.
If they can do that without increasing the phone’s size/thickness or compromising its performance and/or battery life, I’d be all for it.
