<p>The European Union is pressing ahead with new regulation that would require Apple to make iPhone batteries “easily” replaceable by users. We first reported (https://9to5mac.com/2022/12/21/battery-replacement/) on this proposed legislation back in December, and now the EU parliament has overwhelmingly voted in favor (https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20230609IPR96210/making-batteries-more-sustainable-more-durable-and-better-performing) of endorsing the plan.</p>
<p>Still, there are a number of questions that remain about what exactly this means for Apple. </p>
