Please support the idea of building a better planet for our children and do not buy laptops where you can not replace the battery - managers in companies that build these kind of products have to learn that they are acting against human interests and need to change their way of thinking.
Of course this applies to all Laptops where you can not change battery.
Thanks and have a better 2017!
- grzm 10y agoInteresting. I hadn't heard of this before. Can you share some references about this?

- grzm 10y agoOh. I thought there was something particular about removable batteries. It wasn't clear to me at all that planned obsolescence is what you were referring to.
- jiqiren 10y agoNonsense. If you dispose your ewaste properly (which is in general the law) a builtin battery will get recycled or disposed of just the same as one that is replaceable.
- LinuxFreedom 10y agoYou seem to believe that "ewaste" is something that can be "properly disposed" - you have no clue about reality or you are a marketing guy that wants to spread his lies. Maybe you are just naive and really believe the things big companies are telling you - a good follower!
- sprash 10y agoIt is fairly easy to replace the battery. All you need is a screwdriver.
- LinuxFreedom 10y agoOk, that makes it much better - I had the impression that the battery is soldered or fixed in a more anti-hackable way, but just a few srews are ok! Hopefully they keep that design!
