Not sure if this is meant to be a joke... My understanding that most lower-tier phones have replacable batteries, at least my last phones (from the Moto G series) had.
- diggan 9y agoI've been a Moto G fan since the first one, but the current one I have (3rd Generation, falcon) does not have replacable batteries. But instead it has space for a sd-card. I was not sure which one was best to have, but after having the phone for a while and the battery loosing it's juice, I would definitely be happier with a replaceable battery compared to upgradable storage.
- timlod 9y agoI have the recent one (G5), and it has both. 2 Sim card slots, SD card slot, replacable battery. The first one also had a replacable battery. Didn't know the 3rd Generation didn't! In that case I'm glad they reverted their design in that regard.
- webster23 9y agoThe first Moto G (2013) does not have a replaceable battery. I have one right here.
- timlod 9y agoMy bad, remembered it wrong. I mixed it up with the Nexus One I had before that, but that was a high-end phone.
- diggan 9y agoOh, seems you convinced me to upgrade again, forgot my phone outside in the rain, it still works but cameras are all foggy and battery is acting weird (loosing 100% in just a couple of idle hours) so time for a new one! Thanks!
