Good idea, terrible execution. I'd prefer they make manufacturers display the state of a battery (iOS already has this) and provide a single free battery replacement, which doesn't expire with a warranty period. Also, battery replacement service should be free, customers should only pay for battery itself. Current implementation is ridiculous - I don't want the return of fat smartphones with detachable battery.

Plenty of phones with a removable battery are slim.

My LG V20 has a removable battery and it's slim as I could want. I even have it in a case and it's fine.
