Samsung glues their phone batteries in place. Must be awful to replace a battery.

Well, Apple does the exact same thing, just like any other phone manufacturer, otherwise the battery would rattle around in your phone.

Did they install a malicious chip that serial match just about every component on the phone so you can't swap those out on your own?

I don't think so.

that's also shitty but not every android phone manufacturer does that glue thing either.

Every phone is glued together. That's how phones are made now.

I'm talking about the battery, not the phone. Serviceable parts shouldn't be glued.

That's fair. I hate when stuff are glued together too but at least that can be remedied with a hair dryer. I havent taken apart a samsung before (only xiaomi and LG as that's the two brands I buy) and by far all of them have pull tabs on battery glues which is pretty easy to deal with.
