As far as smart phones, what, are you trying to defend planned obsolescence?
Seriously, if the old tech could last 8+ years, why should the new tech be so shitty to only last a few years or so?
Shouldn’t we be upgrading to devices meant to last 20+ years?
My definition of “planned obsolescence” includes devices that either come with outdated software from the factory, or devices that stop getting OS updates after a year or two. To accuse Apple of planned obsolescence in this context is absurd to me when all of their competitors are objectively worse at supporting their phones.
Well my definition of planned obsolescence is when they epoxy the battery into the phone. It’s a well known fact that lithium batteries will wear out in a few years or so…
The EU recently voted to make it law that phone batteries and such need to be replaceable in the future.
Like, why would you want a battery you can’t pull out or replace? It’s like the first thing to wear out, and the most dangerous part.
Samsung epoxies the batteries in their phones, not Apple. Apple uses Command pull tabs. But, you know, Samsung is always innocent on the Internet.
When Apple switched from aluminum to glass, they most certainly now do epoxy them together.

Also, Samsung isn’t even on my radar, F Samsung too. Samsung is most definitely not the only company that makes Android devices.
This video has nothing to do with battery replacements.
