What a horseshit excuse: add 6 screws on your backplate, give it a frame with center glass, add a grommet. Give a torque setting for the screws to have a good seal in your instructions. L

Done.

Samsung did this shit years ago in a phone with a replaceable plastic back.

Samsung still does it. It's called the Xcover lineup.
