Will this impact water proofing?
No, we have ip68 smartphone with removable battery.
Are there any devices that allow a replaceable battery and wireless charging? I know battery swapping can become common, but I also do not want to lose a feature that I currently enjoy.
you could easily add a charging coil in the back of the phone and just have some contacts
my fairphone 4 already has a pair of contacts on its back, with accompanying pogo pins in the body, although i think that's just for an nfc antenna. still, the same system would totally work
Although I support the idea, I'm not sure how useful this is for android phones. All android phones I've owned have long gone out of update support before the batteries have noticeably degraded.
4 years since the last update on my phone, I really don't see why I would change unless core apps like Firefox were to stop working.
Software doesn't stop working. Up to date software becomes so slow on obsolete hardware it makes you pull your hair out trying to use it.
Exactly. I don't even keep a phone for longer than 3-5 years. The batteries on my last few phones were still great when I traded them in.
