    EU lets wearables wriggle out of user-replaceable battery rules

    The European Commission exempted wearable devices like smartwatches and smart glasses from user-replaceable battery requirements, allowing batteries to be replaced only by professionals. The delegated act, adopted on July 14, cites safety and design challenges due to miniaturization and will take effect in 2027 as part of broader EU battery regulations.
