Non-removable battery phones actually bring more controversy than what you think! They come with both advantages and disadvantages. Take a look at this article before you wanna bring home one.

Non-removable battery phones: The advantages

First of all, non-removable battery phones do not allow the dust to get insides. This is one advantage that not everybody recognize. The unibody structure helps protect all the electronics insides from the dust which could dramatically harm the smartphone. On the other hand, removable battery phones with a removable case on the back may leave some space for tiny little dirts to get insides.

Secondly, non-removable battery phones come with external SIM slot and microSD card slot! This is EXTREMELY helpful! Everytime you need to remove the microSD card or to change the SIM, you don’t have to turn off the phone, open the case and remove the battery. All you need to do is using a card remover to discard the card while the phone is still on. However, such phones come with drawbacks too! Check the disadvantages below to make sure you won’t regret after buying a on-removable battery phone.

Non-removable battery phones: The disadvantages

First, non-removable battery phones do not allow you to replace the battery! If you are using a phone with non-removable battery and your phone suddenly freezes due to some technical issue, you can not remove the battery to reset the phone. In that case, you have to use shortcut keys, which is quite complicated. The more serious situation is when the battery dies after years of using, then all you can do is bringing the phone to stores or buying a new one. However the good news is non-removable batteries are often more durable.

Moreover, you cannot use a backup battery in case the phone is running out of power. I’m sure there are a lot of users who use more battery than the phone can offer. In that case, those who use phones with removable battery can buy a backup one to replace if necessary. On the other hand, those who use non-removable battery phones can not do the same. In that case, I suggest you buy a power bank.
