But Apple never included removable batteries on their iPhones but you don’t know why ?

Why Apple never included removable batteries on their iPhones.

Let me explain  now.

1.Space

The biggest issue with a removable batteries is how much space they can take up this is due to the housing components that aren’t necessary for a non-removable battery since that they can simply be glued inside a device without any extra parts.

Not to mention that they can be any shape Apple wants in order to optimize or save space.

For example some iPhones batteries have a shape that looks like an “L” to squeeze in more capacity than a rectangular shape would allow.

2.Waterproofing

Another issue is waterproofing if your phone battery can be removed or come out, it means that water can find its way in which is a problem because users tend to drop their phones in toilets, puddles  on accident so here high water resistance rating is crucial feature.

The benefit of a removable batteries aren’t relevant today as over a decade ago battery technology has improved so much that most phones are able to last a day or two without needing a battery swap.

And the number of discharge cycles batteries can sustain without degrading is higher than ever meaning that a phone that have been purchased in 2012 may have needed its battery replace much sooner than an iPhone purchased two years ago .

But I can’t leave without saying about the benefit this has for Apple.

Benefit this has for Apple.

User who do hold on to their iPhones for many years will eventually notice a decline in battery performance and since they can’t replace the battery themselves, they are left with two option at that time.

  • Option 1: Buying a complete new iPhone
  • Option 2: Paying for a battery replacement.

Both of these means more profit for Apple
