Here’s my take on what phone companies will do next: replaceable batteries are back! With an inkjet twist:
1- You have to buy them precharged
2- You can no longer recharge them
3- The phone will explode if it detects a 3rd party battery

Real inkjet twist. You can subscribe to a battery service that sends you a new battery every month for 19.99. If you cancel the plan, your phone is deactivated immediately, even though your phone came with a battery.

EU is coming for non-replacable batteries in 2027 I think

Or maybe they will go the Musk Tesla route:
Phones will come set to let you use 64gb of space and have a battery that lasts almost a day. For a fee of they will let you make use of 256gb and additional 50% battery capacity. There will be fees for enabling software that allows supercharging with special adapters.
