European Union votes to bring back replaceable phone batteries
Among the many changes, the new rules would require batteries in consumer devices like smartphones to be easily removable and replaceable. That's far from the case today...
You're viewing a single thread.
Now require manufacturers to provide like 5 years of OS updates so devices aren't insecure bricks once you get updates.
OR disallow banking apps from blocking custom ROMs/root, so you can just install your own updates ROM without losing updates.
Already a EU regulation.
Huh? Which part?
Five years OS upgrades. I was mistaken though it's not law yet, just a finished commission proposal, scroll down to the end and look at the annex.
Oh wait that's actually the same thing that's promising replaceable batteries.
