Really hoping this happens. I want to be able to replace the battery on my phone after a year because the performance on the battery degraded by nearly half.
That being said, I'm also willing to bet some time shortly after this goes into affect, the cost of mobile service (at least in the US) will go up another $10/$15 a month, and phones will increase in cost by another $100-$200. Not because materials cost more, or designs change. But to preemptively screw people over.
One year nearly half ? wtf , even my 24/7 power used phone lost approx only 17% on battery health and its a Poco x3 pro
Probably keeps it on 100% for extended periods of time.
Mine charges very often over night, but I'll try to never let it drop below 20% ( that's the worst situation for a battery)
Above 80% also isn't ideal but not as bad as sub 20%
I dunno if the mobile costs will increase since the manufacturers and cellular ISPs are separate companies. Verizon and Tmobile probably don't make any money off phone sales. It's more about the monthly service. People keeping their phones longer might even mean more revenue since people often jump ship with a free upgrade offer.
