  • nah it just has a black screen and wont play, no loading icon or anything. video says its being played from the admin panel, i googled it and other people are having issues with it, almost 2 months old and hasnt been fixed yet, luckily you can still play videos if you use infuse but that client isnt open source





  • my current phone rn has 65% out of 100% battery life, so even if it doesn’t need the battery replacement, it would still be nice to have a new battery for the extra capacity, only thing stopping me is its way to much work to actually replace said battery without taking it to a shop, so i would greatly benefit from it.

    while yes i do agree that i want my device to look nice, its more of a secondary to me,

    I also feel like there’s ways companies could make new designs that incorporate a removable battery that dont look ugly or old, hell even if the design is not as easy to take the back door off as some of the older phones thats fine, as long as i dont have to disassemble the entire phone just to swap the battery im happy.

    I have seen countless videos on tiktok of people being against this move, and my question is why? why wouldn’t anyone want to be able to extend the life of their expensive devices, why wouldn’t people want easily repairable batteries that take less than 5 minutes to swap out?

    the only argument ive seen against this is “OOH BUT BUT BUT THE AESTHETICS OF THE PHONE” who cares? function should always be over looks. and if anything it will end the trend of phones being glassy slabs and bring some innovation and new designs to the table. which will be interesting to see.
