The thing is… it’s not a matter of price. Companies could make all damn phones have a replaceable battery. But that means less profit in the future by making you buy a new phone when your battery stops lasting as long as before, so they hit two birds with one stone. Sell you a new device so then they can keep up with planned obsolescence.

[@gabriel_14179]

It would've. Removable batteries require a protective casing to avoid puncture, beffier connectors, identifier and communication circuitry. It's easier to put a dumb battery you can control from the phone that make a battery that can protect itself from user misuse and explode or combust to flames (plus it protects you from lawsuits)

[@erebostd]

Ignore the stickers and it’s suddenly magically replaceable. I mean: ok, it’s not as replaceable as the old nokias. But it’s easy enough that I wouldn’t mind replacing it myself. Compared to apple, SAMSUNG and others the biggest hurdle (glass back) isn’t even present here…

Nothing: "THIS BATTERY IS NON-REMOVABLE" The battery: *is very clearly removable*

[@madil2259]

They never said that it's modular. People just started using that term.

[@ShadyHero]

this phone basically prooves that phones dont need to be $1000+ to be good im seriously considering buying one of these

[@iPromiseThisIsTheLastOne]

7:53 HTC Phone 1?!

[@flipclone]

I caught that also, not sure if it was a simple mistake or one of Zack's jokes since HTC had a phone called "One"

[@iPromiseThisIsTheLastOne]

@@flipclone probably joking 😂😂

[@dreemwalka]

Tbf This nothing phone really held up this time, super impressed might have a look

[@AmooghSriram-yl1hj]

Waiting for your review man ❤

[@rayers1000]

thank you for saying what ive been thinking about this phone being "modular" but i hope its a step in the right direction

[@swish996]

06:20 battery is made by BYD.. yes the car brand..

[@FindSimpleGuides]

Surprised by the CMF Phone 1 quality at that price point. The modular design is pretty cool too. I wish the battery was replaceable for easier repairs. Overall, this seems like a great budget friendly pick.

[@nomicnevermic]

1:12 an included screen projector? how do you remove that?

[@AniMangHwa_]

*protector Its just a plastic screen protector already installed on phones, you can just peel it of This phones is actually targeted at india because budget phones high demand in india and all budget phone in india comes with charger, cover and screen protector included ( excluding samsung)

[@nomicnevermic]

@@AniMangHwa_ Oh God not another indian acting like every budget product is targeted at india I know he meant "protector", smart boy

5:17 "The CMF Phone 1 is no Fairphone 5"

[@0815dude]

Is this a reason to not sell replacement batteries? Or to make the battery connector a bit hard to access

[@pedr0_m198]

@@0815dude nope, they could've made the battery easily replaceable without any screws or prying but they chose to screw over the consumer

Ik my request won't be heard by you zack sir, but if feasible please a tips or helpful android tricks video using s24 ultra, just like you showed us some really important and useful android specific tips in your "Shifting to iPhone 15 pro and coming back to android" video🙏🏻❤️

[@SharDbbx]

7:44 it is not correct, actually. In 2016 Sony released Xperia XA ultra with ois in the front facing camera (and no ois in the rear for some reason). Just so you know))

[@Quamsi]

6:02 as a former repair tech, I literally flinched here. I was always super paranoid of stabbing my eye out with a black stick while removing batteries with tabs like this.

[@mehrabhasan2257]

I'm a phone repairer, and on Nothing's defense, they have kept replacing the battery VERY easy to be honest. they probably just don't encourage it for everyone, because phone batteries have gotten wayyy better over the years, and people don't need to hot-swap a spare battery in like for cameras; and also for warranty issues.

[@LWoodGaming]

That sticky doesn't do anything with the warranty.

[@jpprice14duh]

It's a decent phone for the price. I came here to see of it was really as they advertised. Thanks sir.

[@AccentedBoi]

HTC phone 1 7:53 🐐🐐🐐

It's becoming increasingly hard to not try to bend my phone in half after watching these videos

2:09 that sound horrible even on low volume

[@huh48894]

Yeah

[@huh48894]

Yeah

[@jonathon947]

This phone is cool. You can scratch it up and just replace the screen protector and back cover. No ugly case. I like it.

[@silva-sir]

Agent 47 on the CMF matter 😂😂😂😂😂😂👌👌

[@TheZandHHorizon]

$199 for a phone, is indeed a game changer.

[@dewaldsteyn1306]

I get the feeling in my gut its a scam tho.

[@TheZandHHorizon]

@dewaldsteyn1306 hmm 😒 🤔 let's wait for the version 2 and 👀

[@RandomnesssE]

0:38 please never say that again

[@mk.3925]

I've been checking your channel everyday waiting for you to do a video on the Flip 6

[@meurglysiii]

Doesn't anybody else think that's pretty stupid to scratch, burn and bend a phone this way? A drop test, pocket with keys test and sitting with back pocket test would make so much more sense.

[@gamechannel1271]

Keys don't scratch any screen nowadays, except for foldables.

[@justagamerhun2228]

Remember that this phone is still easier to repair, or swap/change battery, while it is also easy to mod by adding a powerbank case or some kind of 3d printed backplate, which is cool.
