I am curious how Apple will get around that this time. I’m almost sure this will be as funny as the whole story about the USB-C cables
Simply remove the battery and sell iPhones with magsafe battery pack cases instead?
Hopefully all Apple employees are still on Reddit.
or just like the vision pro - a wired external power pack with a proprietary connector to the iPhone, but USB C on the power pack :D
Lmao that’d be hilarious!
Super capacitor instead of battery. lol
They're now slowly moving to be repairable anyway, as far as i can see. Probably an Image thing.
