The European Union is moving closer to enacting a law that will require smartphones like the iPhone to have easier battery repairs.

Yea there were waterproof phones before most phones pivoted to non-removable right?
I guess another question is whether manufacturers can reach the same current rating on removable battery phones?
Not really.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 was IP67 rated and had a removable battery, MicroSD card slot, and headphone jack.
A better waterproofing rating could be obtained with a screwed-on back panel and gasket. But phone manufacturers are lazy and would rather you buy a new phone when the battery wears out.
