  • I imagine it’s a hell of a lot cheaper/simpler/more reliable in manufacturing to use the adhesive over screws, gaskets, and grease. It reduces both the BOM and the number of processes required to ship a unit, and probably fails less often, which means fewer RMAs. Plus it just plain takes up less space, which leaves more room for the battery.

    I don’t like it, my favorite phone I’ve ever had was a Galaxy Nexus with a zerolemon battery that was bigger than the phone itself, but I can see why gluing everything together would be an attractive solution for the engineers who design these things.





  • It really depends a lot on management. The one I work at takes customer service deadly serious, and we bend over backwards in the name of being accommodating. Had what you described happened at my OG you would have had your entire meal comped and probably gotten a gift certificate along with a profuse apology from the person in charge.
