@AdamBishop @PortsmouthGreens oh excellent! A big step forward in terms of right to repair imo, and we should see devices lasting much longer.

Wonderful news!

It wasn't so many years ago that all phones had this as standard.

That was until the phone providers realised that people would need to buy a whole new phone when the battery died if they did away with replaceable batteries.

That was a very bad move for the environment and for those on lower income.

Great news, shame it's taken so long for them to insist on it.
