There is one thing I do, and that’s use the phone as a phone and nothing more. I’ve only replaced 3 pouch batteries, but they’ve all had little rectangular FPC connectors. There’s no reason that couldn’t count as replaceable as long as you can access them. I’ve only ever ran a phone battery completely down once, in an old Nokia phone, and it took 9 years to do it. I’m still using my Galaxy S4 and am on at least battery number 3, maybe 4.

And as the EU actually listens to the manufacturers, I am sure that they will add exceptions for that. But as the EU bureaucracy works quite well, for sure Braun Series 5 they will also require proof from the manufacturers that their phones are properly certified. Which will again benefit everyone, because waterproof phones will all BE waterproof, instead of only CLAIM to be waterproof. Of course sealed batteries isn’t why new phones don’t have insecurities.
