I’m all for it but how will this effect the way they waterproof devices?
Samsung Galaxy S5 had both waterproofing (IP67) and replaceable battery. Details: https://www.anandtech.com/show/7942/galaxy-s5-followup
There are devices like Samsung’s Xcover products that have the back cover snap into place in a way that creates a water-proof seal around the battery and components inside. It’s incredibly tight and has a rubber ring.
Just waterproof everything that isn’t removable and add a short failsafe for when water is around the battery.
