My definition of "planned obsolescence" includes devices that either come with outdated software from the factory, or devices that stop getting OS updates after a year or two. To accuse Apple of planned obsolescence in this context is absurd to me when all of their competitors are objectively worse at supporting their phones.
Samsung epoxies the batteries in their phones, not Apple. Apple uses Command pull tabs. But, you know, Samsung is always innocent on the Internet.
This video has nothing to do with battery replacements.
