AnonD-1153685, 29 Jun 2024sorry u talking nonsense I have phone with 80w since july ... morebefore saying other nonsense, how about you showing screenshot, your battery history data
if you use apps like accubattery, it show how much battery mah still have, how many charged
2years phones, with light usage might still holding ~80%+
what the temp when you charge with 80w ?
my phone with 65w charging goes up to around ~38c max (on hot days, depends on ambient temp)
while it still safe range, the battery still lose it capacity faster compared to battery stay around ~30c when charging, i can say ~10% capacity difference within 2-3years of usage, whether worth or not, depends on the person

Battery drain way quicker after a year, I change battery the repair shop owner said same stuff just avoid using fast charger. After digging more info about battery I decide just use slow charger. Fast charger already good but battery to support it still a long way to go.

Except when I really need to go out for a long time and I wasn't ready, but that only happens maybe once every 3 months. The rest is always scheduled. It's really not that hard, just do other things and your phone is ready.

RoterDrache, 28 Jun 2024It's not that difficult to design a smartphone with us... moreWe also have 2020 and 2022 versions of the Galaxy S5's ip rating and removable battery and they're made by Samsung too. The Xcover Pro and XCover6 Pro but they're US only.

Anonymous, 28 Jun 2024First they made batteries faster to degrade, then expensive... moreActually cause the battery degrade alot faster is cause by fast charger it generate heat alot. I experience this on my S23+ currently use. First use since release battery just impressive last longer, after half a year I charger the phone pretty much frequent I not sure why battery drain quick. I go samsung official store where I buy it to change battery since it still in warranty, and battery last as first buy. I tell the staff who repair my phone for explanation, he said "ever you use very fast charging?" me said yes. he said don't use it especially third party, battery won't last and battery don't like heat, just use it official charger what it design for. aslo he said whatever its Apple, Samsung, Sony he ever work repair battery, whatever don't use fast charger. It just a cash grab marketing and quick way to kill battery.
So half year after battery replace look ok as it should, I use it official samsung charger, not fast and less heat, I won't ever use fast charger.
I think its true why my older iPhone 7 and Samsung S10 still alive and battery already aging as its old age with old slow charger, while my new S23+ just die quick because of fast charger.

Removing the glue barely changes anything. You still can't replace anything without also replacing the entire glass rear.

It's not that difficult to design a smartphone with user replaceable battery.
Just look at the Nokia N8 or LG G5. So you don't need a detachable back-plate like in old feature phone days.
Btw: since there is always someone in the comments who has concerns regarding IP rating (water protection): the 12 years old Xperia V (LT25i) had a removable back plate and IP rating (ip5). So it's indeed possible to have IP rating and easy to replace battery.
