Wow! I really thought the battery was actually in built making it very difficult to remove not knowing it's as easy as this. But on a serious note, I really dislike dismantling my smartphone most especially if it happens to be an expensive type like this.

Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead
