So many solid wins for EU, so exciting! If it means things become much easier then having to remove a bunch of components just to get to the battery to replace it. I am in.

I honestly don’t have too many issues removing the back with a spuger and heat… Provided they make it so you can replace it just as well. The majority of the reasons people dispose of smart phones and buy a new phone is due to the battery degrading. It costs a lot just to replace it. Swappable batteries increases the longevity of a phone, means I can daily drive my phone for longer. Which is what I want… My pixel 5a battery is already degrading pretty badly. I like my phone but I feel disappointed I didn’t get more usage out of it.

I saw how to replace it, and to do so it means removing a lot of components including the screen… And even though they sell replacement parts including screens they do not for whatever reason sell 5a screens to the UK it honestly baffles me…

Google doing some things for right to repair but much like other companies. It does feel like they are dragging their feet a little bit.
