    It was really interesting to see eco tech dominating ces. Water recycling winning best in show!

    Maybe it's time we all show our environmental impact on our sleeves.

    Making phones easily repairable again would be a nice start.

    I always raise my eyebrows when "green" companies like Google go to ridiculous extents to make simple repairs like battery and screen replacements as difficult as possible in their devices, practically assuring that more of them will wind up in landfills than will be repaired and used for another few years.

    Aside from its superb specs and performance, the relative ease of battery replacement post-warranty was one of the most important reasons I chose the OP7t. Just a little piece of what looks like double-sided tape, not gobs of construction adhesive, holds the battery in place.

    I miss the old days of swappable batteries. I guess the move to waterproof cases saw the end of that.

    I might agree if I didn't own several waterproof cameras that can stay submerged for hours -- and that have removable batteries. But really, I don't even care if the battery is swappable. I just want it to be replaceable without having to break the phone to do it.

    Waterproofing is one thing. More and more manufacturers are going even further by using ungodly amounts of glue and/or gluing the batteries in in such a way that trying to remove them will damage the screen, this making a simple and inevitable repair difficult or impossible even for trained electronics technicians. It's like they want to guarantee that you'll throw the phone away rather than fix it.

    I won't support that kind of thing. I don't mind breaking out the heat gun to remove the back, and I understand that efficient use of space may require that I disconnect a few cables or spin a few screws; but don't intentionally make things harder than they need to be. That will make me just walk away from a manufacturer's whole line.

    I'm excited for the 5G! Yes I live in area that has 5G capability, but the subscription prices are yet too high for me (1 reason I bought "basic" 7 pro and not the 5G version).

    Man! AMD has shown so much rise in 2019! Released many value for money APUs, which were better, and even more affordable than Intel's counterparts! Underdog becoming a top dog! Expect even fierce competition between these two in 2020!
