Why is the mobile phone with removable battery disappeared now?
I don't know if you still remember that in the era of feature phones more than a decade ago, the battery of a mobile phone was detachable. At that time, buying a mobile phone usually comes with two batteries, which are convenient for us to disassemble and replace them. Both batteries are fully charged before going out, so there is no need to worry about the phone running out on the road.

, but almost no battery can be removed in mobile phones nowadays. Without a spare battery, the battery power of the mobile phone is always worrying, not to mention the current consumption of mobile phones is also much faster. Therefore, in the past, it was even possible to charge once every two or three days. Nowadays, mobile phones have to be charged several times a day. So why did the removable battery disappear?
First, follow the trend of Apple, the weather vane of iPhone

The current wave of smartphones that cannot remove the battery can be traced to Apple at the earliest. In 2007, Apple launched its non-removable battery. The iPhone immediately set off a revolution in the mobile phone industry. More and more mobile phone manufacturers began to follow Apple's lead and made their mobile phones into the form of non-removable batteries.

Don’t look at the current Apple like squeezing toothpaste, the new iPhone does not have many highlights in the configuration. But the iPhone in the early years was indeed the trend indicator of the mobile phone industry. Many designs and functions on smartphones became popular because of the iPhone. Of course, many designs disappeared with the cancellation of the iPhone.
Second, reduce the failure rate and improve the waterproof performance

The trend of non-removable batteries was set off by Apple, so why did manufacturers make this decision? There are also considerations for our users.Removable batteries are more prone to safety issues during use, especially when it was popular to use various universal chargers to charge mobile phones, which increased the safety risks of the battery, such as battery swelling or faster power consumption.

In order to reduce the failure rate, manufacturers have chosen to introduce non-removable batteries. In addition, the non-removable battery also greatly enhances the integration of the mobile phone, thereby improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the mobile phone.
Third, maximize profits and force users to switch phones

Although non-removable battery mobile phones have certain benefits for our users, in fact, it is the mobile phone manufacturers that ultimately benefit NS. Friends of the mobile phone can think about it. In the past, when the mobile phone could be disassembled, if the mobile phone battery had a problem, we could equip a new battery instead of replacing the mobile phone.

But now that the mobile phone battery is not removable, once the mobile phone battery has a problem, we often directly replace the mobile phone without changing the battery. In fact, if the mobile phone is returned to the factory or is to find a professional repairer, the current mobile phone can also remove the battery, but our users often find it so troublesome, so we choose to change the phone directly. In this way, manufacturers have achieved the goal of forcing users to switch phones.

The design of the non-removable battery is undoubtedly in line with the mainstream trend of the development of smart phones, but many of our machine friends miss the original removable battery mobile phone very much. The biggest reason is that the removable battery mobile phone has a spare battery, which has a longer battery life than current mobile phones. Which design do you think is better?
