🔋SmartPhone battaries

from Veritas · host Truth

🔋The European Union has set a dramatic new regulation that requires technology manufacturers, led by Apple and Samsung, to allow users to replace batteries independently by 2027. The law is intended to combat the phenomenon of electronic waste by extending the life of devices and preventing the need to purchase a new phone just because the battery wears out. While companies express concern about damaging the water resistance and visibility of the devices, regulators insist on a design that promotes sustainability and economic savings for the consumer. Although the legislation is valid in Europe, it is estimated that it will lead to a change in global production standards, which will also directly affect the Israeli market. Ultimately, the move is expected to turn back the wheel to the days when device maintenance was simple and accessible to everyone in their home.
