Het Financieele Dagblad independently obtained a new EU document, which will propose a new law that states that `` all manufacturers who want to sell smartphones in the EU must have removable batteries '' It seems that. At the time of article creation, the leak document has not been released.

Het Financieele Dagblad independently obtained the leak information, according to technology media TechRadar: 'This rumor indicates that a new bill (for removable batteries) may be announced in mid-March 2020. As a result, none of the smartphones manufactured in 2020 will have a removable battery, and indeed, given the time it takes to implement this type of bill, it will appear in 2021 You won't see a removable battery even with a new smartphone. '
However, if the leaked documents are correct and the bill is passed, everything, at least for smartphones sold in the EU, will have to have a 'removable battery'. Although this bill is only for the EU, TechRadar wrote that `` All smartphone manufacturers will not give up a huge customer base such as Germany, France and Italy '', and if the bill is passed all smartphones Says they have to install a removable battery.
If the leak document is accurate, the EU will ask the smartphone manufacturer for a 'removable battery' after the 'common charger for smartphones'. However, Apple has already issued a statement that it has `` has a negative impact on consumers in Europe and the economy as a whole '' against the EU bill calling for `` common charger for smartphones '', and the bill on `` removable battery '' It's clear that more complaints will erupt from smartphone manufacturers when the emerges.
