"it must be easy to replace a battery without any kind of technical expertise."

[-] KrisND@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, and it would still not require "any kind of technical expertise.". That doesn't mean the battery replacement process couldn't include replacing gaskets, screws, tape during the process to ensure a safe and functional device since it's still being opened. They may even sell it as a kit?

There is still so much left vague or not even mentioned, I just wish it was better off the bat. Of course, as mentioned it's a step in the right direction but there are holes that could be filled before people get screwed over.
