I’ve not taken apart a brand new iPhone foe a while, but the way they used to do it where you take out two screws and then everything comes apart without tons of glue… well, it’s great. There’s no reason phones can’t all be built like that.
I’m with you. In a modern phone I’ve never wanted to replace the battery. In the past I’ve never had a replacement be nearly as good as the original so once I had to start replacing it, it was just a battle from that point. I think this will generate more ewaste as manufacturers will overproduce batteries.
