Assuming it even works in a practical sense, the only way that'll ever catch on is if they open the standard to third party manufacturers.

    Didn't Motorola do this a long time ago? I seem to remember them having various camera attachments back in ~2017

    I have one of their phones of that time and a few modules. It was pretty neat. Don't remember what version of android it was but the Moto Z Play was giving me 2 days of active use even without using the battery pack. Then lenovo bought moto and the updates killed the battery life.

    Yeah that thing was very cool but unfortunately they did not have a ton of modules and it did not catch on. They were very smart to have pogo pins rather than the absolutely moronic "wireless" trash we have today. I can see something like this creating a whole new industry, if successful.
