I look forward to see if they come up with a clever Apple-like way to do this

Battery DRM?

Then they wouldn't be able to sell their phones in the EU. Regulators may be stupid, but even they can see that it's a blatant disregard to the rule of replaceable batteries.

I mean, Bosch eBikes already do this. You can only use official batteries with them

Watch Bosh change their tune a mere days before this law becomes effective.
