What is that?

Okay

I don’t think it will have micro SD.

This way they get to make more money??

There are definitely bad products.

It probably won’t.

True. My Asus Max Pro M1 had that design although it didn’t have any liquid protection aside from basic splash resistance. Several Redme Note devices also had same design. I had always thought the back pannel was glued shut untill I visited service centre for battery replacement and they just popped off the back.

Solid logic

Companies would need some time to redesign their products.

There is no way most people can replace there smartphone battery with current designs.

Not having SD card is real painful.

I think laptops are also covered.

Thanks.

E-waste and Li-ion battery component shortages are gradually becoming a global problem. So ofcourse Governments will have to intervene at some point.

This law exists to force manufacturers to create a circular economy for batteries. A “circular economy” refers to a manufacturing model in which the resources put into it are recycled or reused as much as possible.

Then the rest of us will get really pissed unless the EU version is shit.

The headline says it’s official. But then the article mentions -

Now, the only step left is for the European Council and Parliament to sign on the dotted line.

So it’s not official?? Can anyone explain please??

I had no idea!

They will probably be even more expensive. That is unless they release a midrange model.

It’s better than A54.

Feels like a bit overpriced to me.
