    They're not limiting what batteries you can use though. You can use any battery you want, you just won't be able to take advantage of the battery health reporting in iOS.

    If the user can't replace the battery themselves without being able to clear this error, it's a problem. 
     
    It's like BMW and their damn check engine light clear sequence. 
     
    There needs to be an easy way to let the phone recalibrate its new battery without Apple's intervention.

    Just FYI, a bettery replacement from Apple is $69 for the X/s/r/max and $49 for everything else (all free under warranty), not $200.
     
    Also, given that the service message is "buried" in settings that most people likely never look at, I'm having a hard time finding a reason to give a shit about this.

    The controller on lithium batteries is generic and only there to monitor charge an discharge to prevent the battery from exploding.  It is purely a safety device and isn't even a micro controller.   What apple are putting in here is completely different and completely unnecessary.  It serves absolutely no purpose, if a dud battery is put in the ios software should read the battery condition accurately enough for the consumer/repairmen to know the battery is dead, they don't need false signals making all batteries look dead just because apple didn't do the repair.

    Wake me when Apple, Google, Steam, Origin and Epic sign up and make that a rule in their stores.
     
    Hopefully this means the end of gambling mechanics in games designed to empty peoples wallets. Unfortunately Korea and Japan's gaming industry needs to hop on board, otherwise the loot box/gachapon model will just persist in games published there.
     
    But the ESA is still behind the ball here. Games with recurrant microtransactions tied to gambling mechanics (loot boxes, gachapon) to adult-only, and games that add them later should have their rating retroactively changed, with retail copies refunded by the publisher.

    $67,000USD for the Razer spec, $63,450 for a top-spec NIO ES6. Assuming it's based off of the top-spec 84kWh/510km car, it's not a terrible markup.

    Razer is a gaming peripherals company, and now they are start making a " gaming car" with RGB lighting?! Well, if you are a gamer and obsess with RGB lighting, then you should not want to miss out this opportunity to get yourself a " gaming car" with RGB lighting and all the gaming peripherals on the go. But for real though, I bet this car is going to cost more than $35k for RGB lighting and all the good razer crap will put in. Also, what kind of engine is underneath this
    "gaming car" and how many HP and Torque. I bet the aerodynamic on this car will going to give you additional 20 FPS boost while playing Fortnite inside your car.
