My phone isn't larger than an iPhone and I can change the battery myself. A bad excuse remains a bad excuse.

The iPhone 13 Pro Max can stream video for 25 hours. How long can your phone?

Waterproofing is more important to me than a removable battery. Apple will replace the battery for $69 when it is time. And they will still be providing software updates for it in 6 years.

How much is a replacement battery for your non-waterproof phone? How long will it receive software updates? Will you buy a new one when they stop updating it?

How's it's water resistance?

It doesn't die in the rain or from coffee or sugary drinks. Also not from dropping it into snow. I have not tested it otherwise. I would estimate IPX4.
