It is a gasket with a sticky substance to keep the back from falling off. This sticky substance is, as far as I am aware called "glue".
I do not know what your point is. If you want to say "phone backs are secured by sticky gaskets" instead of "phone backs are glued down", be my guest. Who cares?
Still, it is done for a particular purpose and shouldn't be legislated away.

I am aware.
- pessimizer 4y agoTheir point was that you were saying a thing confidently that was not true. I'm trying to figure out what your point is, other than pretending like you have inside information about the necessity of glue that isn't there.
- constantcrying 4y agoWhat was I wrong about? What do you think the sticky substance on the gaskets is? Couldn't possibly be glue. My point is the phones are glued for a good engineering reason.
- tpmoney 4y agoI suppose the point might be that if the speculation is that the phone is being “glued shut” to inhibit repairs, there are other glues and epoxies that would be far more effective at the task than the ones chosen for the waterproofing seal or battery mounting.
