How about replaceable batteries?

• patall 7mo ago
  EU regulation on that should come into force in Feb 2027.

    That regulation doesn't apply to mobile devices at this point afaik.

    Seeing how Motorola is trying to bypass the regulation for software updates, I don't have any hopes. https://www.androidauthority.com/motorola-eu-software-updates-loophole-3636627/ https://www.androidauthority.com/motorola-eu-software-update...

    You sure? I only heard of laws about repairability, not swappable batteries. You can already replace the battery of any phone, the only question is if it'll take you 1 minute (Fairphone) or several hours (every other vendor I'm aware of). The legislation might make it take maybe 1 hour instead of 2, and requires (iirc) that you can obtain legit replacement parts for a few years, but that's about it
