    Finally. So tired of having to replace a phone simply because the battery no longer lasts a day, while the rest of it is still functional.

      You can just replace the batteries in most phones for $100 or so. No need to buy another $500-$1000 phone.

      You may or may not lose water resistance, but im sure you can live with that vs having to buy another one.
