    Many laptops/ultrabooks have easily accessible batteries nowadays, any specific example when you mean sealed up?

      All of them. You could argue that the time and expertise needed to replace a laptop battery is negligible, but I say it’s an unnecessary increase of time and risk required to do so.

      What do you feel are the benefits of embedding a laptop battery in the case?

        Portability for one. You can move your laptop without worrying about the battery latches getting damaged.

        I used to refurb laptops and I’ve seen plenty of externally mounted batteries that just wouldn’t reliably sit on the laptop anymore.
