Hi, what Android phone would you guys recommend for something with a removable battery and a price below 400 USD.
The things is, I only use my phone for calls, whatsapp and some casual browsing so I don't need anything fancy or powerful. A big screen would be nice.
Thanks.
I suppose you would like one that runs a recent version of Android?
Many of the less known brands offer phones with dual SIM and removable battery.
I suppose it's a matter of finding one with good quality and value.
You can try the LG G5 or some of the older Samsung phones like the Note 4 or Galaxy 5 (maybe a few from J series too). There are some Motorola phones with a removable battery but not sure about their availability in Lebanon.

Yeah +1 for that!
Even though these old flagships are kinda obsolete right now, in terms of software support, the hardware is top notch so I would recommend those over cheap chinese phones.

Here you go ;)

Thanks for the replies. How many years would a non-removable battery last with light/normal daily usage (just some calls/sms or brief whatsapp usage).
The thing is, I might keep my phone for a rather long time. So I don't want to get something I will be forced to change soon because the battery reaches the end of its life.
Phone shops do offer battery replacement to non-removable battery phones. and if you are a bit tech savvy you can do it your self.

So don't limit yourself just because you want to have the phone for a few years more.

Also by then that removable battery might be hard to find

Yeah--many, if not most, local phone shops can replace batteries in sealed phones----the issue you will run into is that a phone which is opened may not retain some of the same characteristics it had, such as water and dust resistance that it had prior to them working on it so keep that in mind.

And if you want a phone with a big screen and good price, I think you have to look elsewhere. There are a lot of decent chinese phones with big screens, big batteries and little else you can get from Aliexpress, Gearbest and others for well less than $300. The Xiaomi Mi Max 2 for example has a 6.44" screen, a 5300 milliamp battery with a qc 3.0 for about $300.

This is why I would prefer to do it myself, and it is also cheaper and you make sure that you replace your battery with a good one.
