Absolutely I mentioned features.
One of my primary requirements is a replaceable internal battery. That used to be a hallmark of all but the very cheapest Samsung Phones.

Thei exploding battery fiasco was possible because they took a one hundred eighty degree turn in their design philosophy.

All of which you would know were you a long time customer, or if you read threads about the problem at the time.

And if you had read my posts in the past, I have four non-negotiable requirements from a phone.

1. Replaceable battery.
2. Removable storage.
3. Robust transceiver section (the radio needs to get a signal even in a metal building surrounded by machinery )
4. Five inch or better screen.

All of these features have been affordable since the Dell Streak came out.
Samsung made the best from the launch of the Note through the end of the Note 4.

I could care less about cameras, or biometrics, or other fluff.

Sorry to disappoint you but I don’t follow you.

Which phone meets 4 of 4?

They bought some cheap batteries from China.
