Do you miss phones with replaceable batteries? By 2027, you won't anymore because, by law, almost every smartphone will have them again.

It actually is! Second time I'm having the subboard replaced. 3rd time I can request a new phone or a replacement by law. Still not ok for a flagship phone by such a large manufacturer

Try cleaning it. I used to have the same issue, and had to get the subboard replaced multiple times too, until I realized that mechanically cleaning it with something really thin works as well. Felt really dumb after finding out lol. The pocket lint can absorb moisture and then the sensor doesn't work properly.

I'll try it out thanks

It's almost hypersensitive, well beyond what it needs to be. I couldn't charge it by cable for 3 days. Not ok at all, good luck with it mate!
