No tentative of pushbacks from the likes of Apple ou Google on that new 2027 removable battery rule? That’s great news anyway. Curious to see how apple will react and implement this in the iPhones.
I wonder how they’ll make it unavailable in the US.
Apple will pitch it like their own idea and sell batteries for $250. They'll have a shiny apple logo on them.
