There would not be an issue for Apple or Samsung to design a backplane that uses screws to hold the phone together, eliminating the need for glue entirely.
It just looks a bit ugly.
- creshal 2y agoIt is so easy indeed that Samsung has been making such phones for over a decade. If people started putting their money where their mouth is, maybe they'd even sell.
- mschuster91 2y agoPeople buy what is advertised to them, let's be real. Yes, Samsung offers such devices, and I for example have an Active Tab 3 as my daily driver (despite its issues, such as the screen being glued to the case, and the glue is not water-tight when it gets even remotely warm). But most people are going to buy what their telco offers on sale, and that is iPhones and Samsung Galaxy S series. Everything else is specialty that you need to buy in cash.
