Every android phone in that page has a score lower or equal to all the iPhones. This has to be a joke, right? Example:

Galaxy S20 Ultra [3/10]: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+S20+Ultra+Tea...

iPhone 11 Pro Max [6/10]: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone+11+Pro+Max+Teardown/1...

But sure, lets keep bashing Apple because that gives us all the internet kudos, am I right?

I hate how "waterproof" has come to mean "you can't fix this phone anymore". Samsung up to at least the S7 used to be decent about changing the camera module, the screen, the battery, ... But now you can't do anything.

Although you are right and this is a problem, android does not in general claim to be climate-friendly, while Apple does.

[buzzerbetrayed]

Well according to the list you posted, they seem to be the most climate friendly mass smart phone producer on the planet. Perhaps they deserve the title.

[fsflover]

This is a weird defense. They are certainly able to do better with their resources unlike e.g. Fairphone.

The scores should correlate but my main worry would be the battery replacements

From that description it does seem that Apple worries about it:

> Critical display and battery repairs remain a priority in the iPhone's design.

I've seen Android phones where the replacement is simple and others where you have to take the whole phone apart to take the battery out

[rasz]

This is Apple fault, because other manufacturers just started to imitate their build style, poorly.

[saiya-jin]

That's a fine example of whataboutism. Look, others are doing the same bad thing, what's your problem?

[sokoloff]

It seems very reasonable to look at direct competitors when considering whether a company is making good engineering or marketing choices.

[asutekku]

No, it’s more of the fact that almost everyone compared to Apple is doing worse but apple gets all the bashing.

What? Why bring Android into this completely out of nowhere.
