gollark: My Wileyfox Swift 1 was pretty great, it had a plastic back cover, dual SIM cards, and a removable battery, but a design flaw in the micro-USB port apparently made most of the existing devices become unusable after about two years.
gollark: Especially on the everything-is-glued phones.
gollark: Not very easily.
gollark: With a removable battery, not only can a dead battery be replaced, but you can manually swap in a charged battery if your existing one runs out.
gollark: Oh yes, micromanage battery use at great effort for a 30% benefit in longevity.
