gollark: Does anyone know of phones with removable batteries (and good availability of said batteries), no notch, an LCD (not OLED) screen, a μSD card slot, decent battery life, and some custom ROM support, which is still produced or fairly available used? Do any even exist now?!
gollark: Since my current device doesn't have a replaceable battery, and is becoming increasingly less usable, I don't know *what* I'll replace it with which won't break in the same ways.
gollark: My *previous* phone became unusable due to not actually holding in μUSB cables, preventing me from charging it. Though I think that's partly because the port was mildly out of spec.
gollark: Also, my phone (~2 years old) has a USB-C port which cables randomly come loose from now.
gollark: I'd prefer the ability to swap out batteries over waterproofing.
