That’s why the market share of premium phones increasing is especially relevant, as I said at the bottom. For instance, 45% of Apple’s sales are in this sector and Apple is the most popular phome brand in the US. Even their “budget” lineup starts at $430.
None of the premium phones will face a price increase because of this regulation, this much should be obvious. And since cutting edge technology quickly becomes cheaper, after two or three generations budget phones will also have replacable batteries while being waterproof while remaining as affordable as today.
Something that isn’t mentioned either, the cost of simply replacing batteries is much, much lower than purchasing an entirely new phone, for both you and the environment.
