On one side you have megacorps gathering personal data of millions of europeans daily, even very private data, and EU is bothering with choosing default browsers, a thing that can be mitigated literally by just opening IE, typing "mozilla.org" in the url bar and pressing enter. So what if integrated batteries occupy less space, so do proprietary charge ports, and we used to have waterproof phones even with removable batteries (atleast a few samsungs could do both, back in the time). Replace the glued on back panel with a screwed in glass panel and a rubber gasket, and your 2year old phone will be given a new life in five minutes, compared to literally >100eur service job, making it usually not worth the replacement. I have no idea why your shitty camera has to do with newer phones being glued back together instead of scewed together. And yes, i'll stand my ground with batteries, because the battery is the only part of your phone that's guaranteed to fail with time, and with phone prices nearing 1k eur, not having easily replacable batteries is just another thing companies do to screw the user. I'd also mention headphone jacks, but some hipsters "assure" me that their mini bluetooth pods or whatever are comparable or better to wired high quality headphones.
