Why are modern mobile phones designed to have non-replaceable batteries?
“Most of today's mobile phones are designed to be one-piece, and the battery cannot be replaced. Is this really good? I still prefer the removable battery to be replaced at any time.”
As a mobile phone battery manufacutrer, I want to share something interesting to you.
The European Union has released a bill called the Circular Economy Action Plan that requires all electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets and Bluetooth headsets to have replaceable batteries. Therefore, the topic of whether mobile phone batteries should be replaceable has begun to be paid attention to again.
Why are the batteries of most electronic products not replaceable?
Some people say that the all-in-one function is better for waterproof and dustproof, but the Defy launched by Motorola in 2010 is the earliest three-proof smartphone, the battery is replaceable, and the protection level is higher than that of many mobile phones on the market now;
Others say that if the battery is replaceable, there will inevitably be unsightly gaps in the case. But the G5 launched by LG in 2015 can also replace the battery, and the excellent design and production make the seams small enough to be ignored;
Some people say that the all-in-one machine allows the existence of special-shaped batteries, and the L-shaped battery used by IphoneX can make greater use of the internal space of the fuselage. But since the battery is put in one piece, it will not be difficult to replace the whole piece.
The above are all side reasons, and the core reasons are the following：
1. Thin and light, large capacity, replaceable battery, only two of the three can be chosen.
2. The popularization of integrated body such as metal and glass.
3. Marketing strategy, most people think that if the mobile phone is broken, it needs to be replaced with a new one, and the sales of mobile phone manufacturers will also increase.
