What modern smartphone has a replaceable battery?

Edit: well, I'm actually quite surprised.



A Samsung Galaxy S (up to and including the S5)

I don't personally like the Galaxy series, but it is undeniably a modern smartphone that has a replaceable battery.


In fact I don't think Samsung has made any smartphone without a removable battery.


A good thing, since their batteries don't last that long. I've had to replace 2 batteries (on Galaxy Ace and Galaxy Mini 2) which had only 2 years of (admittedly heavy) use, while my Nokias sustained a lot more abuse.


Well, Jolla has :)


Most Modern Smart Phones sold in India in this price category has replaceable battery

Edit: I was asking the question whether this has a reason behind low price?


What is it about low price phones and replaceable batteries? Is it because the extra bulk/heft is acceptable on those phones and the batteries don't need to be molded?


Samsung Galaxy 4S and 5S have replaceable battery.


Samsung galaxy s5
