Look at all the Readers where we cannot get a battery and thus eventually will need to be replaced. We live in a throw away society and not everyone wants to replace the gadgets we have.
That is why I have an S4. The battery is easily replaceable and I even have a spare with a charger. If my battery dies on the road I can pop it out and put in the spare battery. The depleted battery goes into the charger to wait until I have access to an outlet.
