If the screws and the back weren't removable, then okay fair enough. But the fact is that it's removable, so I'd argue it's not a gimmick. You are free to disagree.

Removable back with user replaceable battery, that is off the shelf available without voiding the warranty or some other fine print shit, is something useful.

You have so much same same stuff to choose from anyway. I'm not a fan but you have lots of mainstream models and this phone's existence isn't gonna affect your choices.

And even tho it's easier to change, non-tech savvy people will still need to go to repair shop so they can get their battery changed.

I remember when Oneplus 2 came without NFC 10 years ago and people were mad about it. How can you make the same error again with nfc is so widespread? Definitely a bummer.

If I didn't use my NFC, I'd have to carry 5 different cards on me and a wallet for those. That's one extra pocket being used and one more thing to worry about.

I don't care about their marketing. I just like the design. Whether you think it's gimmicky is your own opinion.

I am bootloader unlocked on all the phones I use and therefore can't pass the Play Integrity check. Therefore, paying with my phone has never been an option.

I really don't understand why people and tech youtubers are hyping this phone. Removable back? Just go get one case for 3-4$ and there you go. For the price this phone does not offer anything, you will be better with some poco phone at least you will get charger, NFC, 3.5 jack, stereo speakers for the same price, not all these useless *features" CMF offers.

It doesn't look like it'd even be hard and the hardest part of replacing batteries on phones these days is getting the back off anyways.

This phone is obviously for youngsters so stop it already about NFC and stuff. Kids don't care about NFC and don't even know what a 3.5mm jack is at this point.
