If only new batteries were easily swappable...
They will be in the EU
flip phones have those, but i've never had to swap one. the longest i've had one before it broke was ~ 7 years and a charge still lasted about half as long as when it was new (2 weeks vs 4).
they actually fit in a pocket and last a lot longer between charges. i don't 'need' the internet on me 24/7, so i'll keep getting those as long as they're still made.
Well, that's good, but most other people either need to or want to.
Yes, I have one of those as well, but a smartphone is something I carry anyway.
