On a device that gets replaced every 1-3 years? 🤔

Who says the devices are going to be replaced every 1-3 years after we solve those problems like today's non-replacable short-lasting batteries?

The battery tech isn't the part that needs replacing. ;)

Smartphones are almost perfected now, the only "parts" that are making them obsolete after 2-3 years are batteries and operating system, both should be regulated to be changable and available for third-parties to make replacement.

Planned obsolescence.
