minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•5 days agoI’ll accept that compromise. Now I’m more curious if the batteries are hot swappable though. It’d probably cause some chaos with the battery indicator but just making me think…

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•5 days agoWouldn’t the battery indicator already be fucked because of this? Do those cells match what it came with?
minus-square@[email protected]OPlinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 days agoActually capacity exceeds the original spec. Battery indicator seems accurate though.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•6 days agoIg, but you can expect a Li-ion to last about 2-3 years, it’s not that much of a chore to open it up every 3 years, especially after the first time

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•6 days agowhy should you open it up again, instead of just charging/replacing the repalceabke batteries
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•5 days agoBecause they’re ugly, bulky and inconvenient as fuck.

Replaceable vs “easily replaceable”

The logic here is astounding.

okay but who doesn’t want a tablet with replaceable batteries
