    The EU are going to mandate removable batteries in phones, so I don’t see any reason you can’t take a standardised battery that lasts decades and swap it into your next phone, if they’re all designed properly with compatibility with this miracle battery in mind :-D

      Perfect. Then they’ll sell the battery separately and it’ll cost $5000

        A battery that last several years and can be used in a plethora of devices would be reasonably expensive yes. $5000 is a lot but maybe $500 is more reasonable for something like that?

      Exactly; if Usually, it takes years, if not decades, before laws and regulations are actually in place
