For all the faults Valve has, I have to admit that their support for self-fixing their product is really top-notch.

Cellphones should follow the same model. It would have been much easier for me to change the battery of my phone, and Frankenstein it with an upgraded battery from its next model line.
But then how would the phone manufacturers get people to buy a new phone every year?
Well, if these idiotic hippies actually cared about the environment, they would have cared more about right of repair of a phone than on fucking straws! But we live in a clown world so... heh!
I wish they were hippies: hippies would be more likely to sell a repairable phone.
For years I've simply wanted a phone that could run on AA or AAA batteries. Exactly one was ever made but no longer works since it was 2G only.
Why do you want those? you would spend more on batteries in a month than the phone cost... lmao
haha, i cant imagine apple releasing a video like that on a new product. any video they released for how to repair a mac is probably 5 minutes of silence with a picture of some normie going to 'genius' bar.
upgrading your battery is pretty stupid. you can easily overheat your phone, especially for one with poor heat dissipation, which is most china phones, if its not designed for a larger (in size) battery then youre going to screw your phone up somehow. if you need longer battery, you can A: buy a 2nd battery and get a repairable phone, or B: buy a dumbphone. the second one costs as much as a battery and it will last all week without a charge. you could buy a spare battery for that and have two weeks without a charge.
This one is actually much cooler than with the OG battery. It is using the S7 Edge battery on a S6 Edge phone. It didnt fit perfectly, but the case holds the back of the phone well. And the only thing heating up is the cpu. The one before it, the original, it would make the phone REALLY hot.
Good upgrade in my view :)
Did it on two S6 Edges, and both work well. It was a pain to open it up, and then unglue the old battery.
