    I write 5 zł (5 zlotys, 5 PLN) or 5€ (5 euros, 5 EUR) because in Europe we don’t unnecesarily invert the currency symbol compared to what we speak. The following system, which I found on Wikipedia, would make the most sense:

    Exceptionally, the symbol for the Cape Verdean escudo (like the Portuguese escudo, to which it was formerly pegged) is placed in the decimal separator position, as in 2Image50.

    That’d be perfectly consistent with what we speak and solve the problem of fractional currency notation as well.











  • Or, better yet, you should be able to hot swap the battery, which means that you can change one half of the battery, then the second half and the phone won’t shut down at all. Foldables make it easier since they already use 2 batteries, 1 for each half. Just wire them up in parallel and the voltage won’t drop when one is taken out for replacement by the user.
