I never said removable battery is bad, on the contrary it's a great thing to have. But to tell me sliding out battery instead of popping it out and calling it innovation is a simplest form of exaggeration.

This the whole concept of Apple that unfortunately some companies are copying as well. Apple is a selfish company who thinks always of personal advantages of its customers...look at its accessories, you cannot use other brands except buying directly from them, because they won't simply work if from other brands...

Having replacable battery is important as an optio which gives user to give option.
Which is what LG is giving. And what a way LG.. Making Life’s Good.

AnonD-379134, 20 Feb 2016would u please shut up haterHe's not a hater, he's a fool. Battery life is the most important spec on mobiles (a dead phone is a useless phone) and the best way have as much of it and never charge is removable tech.
To him innovation is a new thing. To me innovation is a new use. Removable batteries used to be useless in the dumb phone era. Now that phones have become our personal computers it's the most important thing (no charge time + infinite charge via carrying and spare or two).
The new use that removable batteries found (the juice behind your personal computer) made them the most innovative thing of the last decade. So he's exactly wrong, his mind is narrow, but he's not a hater...
