And you're noone to tell others what they want.

    And your comment suggests that you are an owner of a phone with non-removable battery. The truth hurts you, this frustrates you. So you want to justify your purchase by understating the problmes of your phone.

        Seriously? glass back? Sony is moving away from glass back with their latest xperia flagship because of the glass self cracking issue thats quite common with their Z lineup.

        Now you will have to worry about the back for scratches and crack as well. SMH

        Apple learned their lesson already with glass back panel, it will just make the phone more vulnerable when dropped.

            What? I've never read such bollocks ever in my life. Do you know what kills your battery...is a Fast Charger! And who doesn't get a new phone every 2 years? You always want to keep up with the times and latest tech.

              The last hopes:

              I'm waiting for Google's Project Ara modular phones.
              And I hope LG G4 will have removable battery (as LG G3 has).

              All other manufacturers follow the wrong design trend.

                Phones with non-removable battery = disposable junks. Because you can use it only for a limited period of time (1-2 years, when the battery wears out).

                  With heavy usage, NO phones lasts longer than a few hours. That's why extended batteries are important.ú

                  If someone wants to use his phone after 2 years, he will have to buy a new phone, because the battery is non-removable. The service is not a solution. It costs much more than buying a new battery, it takes weeks before you get back the phone from the service, and you have to deal with the fact that they had to take apart/open the body of the phone which will damage the phone.

                    Power pack is a primitive method. It wears out the phone's built-in battery even faster, because you charge it more fequently. The extended battery is the best way.

                    The other thing that proves that you are closed minded is that you don't talk about that the batteries have short lifespan. It's capacity decreases over time and it won't hold a charge after about 2 years so you have to replace it.

                    So removable battery is the most important.

Two different sites making revies get much different results and judging by battery sizes, my own phone and what many people are saying, i tend to agree with them. 11h mah with a 4000mah battery and not on full brightness
