1 year agoI’d say that’s only half the problem. While ease of disassembly is a factor I’d personally consider when buying a phone, I feel like the more difficult part is finding a good quality battery replacement. For the most popular phones (Galaxy S series, iPhones, and a few others) you can probably find a battery at a reputable site like iFixit, otherwise you’re stuck with ordering something that supposedly matches the part number on Amazon or some sketchy Chinese site. Is it a new part or a refurbished OEM battery? Is it anywhere close to advertised capacity? Will it work any better than the used battery you’re replacing?
Could also be that they have a spin of ½ so you need to rotate them by 720° to get back to their original orientation.
