Rossman is a device repairman tbf, he sees the worst of the worst phones out there.
He seems mostly iPhones, and his experiences with pull tabs are similar to mine.
Well, it is what it is. Maybe they could use better glue, idk.
Or simply avid that BS all together and hold batteries in place with screws and/or a simple metal slab holding it in place.
If they can do that without increasing the phone’s size/thickness or compromising its performance and/or battery life, I’d be all for it.
