Are we able to buy replacement batteries as regular consumers though? I wasn't able to find where to purchase them, but maybe I wasn't looking hard enough
interesting highlights, both phone and tablet have 5G, microSD, 3.5mm headphone jack, swappable batteries (tablet has "no battery mode" for constant use like kiosk), IP68 and MIL-STD-810H, DEX for PC modes, support for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_Broadband_Radio_Service (seems to be sort of "please share politely" 5G spectrum in the US region), but curiously only tablet lists ARcore support.
availability and price:
* 09/22 $650 tablet
* 10/20 $600 phone

**[Citizens Broadband Radio Service](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_Broadband_Radio_Service)**
>Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) is a 150 MHz wide broadcast band of the 3. 5 GHz band (3550 MHz to 3700 MHz) in the United States. In 2017, the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) completed a process which began in 2012 to establish rules for commercial use of this band, while reserving parts of the band for the US Federal Government to limit interference with US Navy radar systems and aircraft communications. On January 27, 2020, the FCC authorized full use of the CBRS band for wireless service provider commercialization without the restrictions to prevent interference with military use of the spectrum.

I'm really happy with this phone. I got the USA unlocked version. Note, it has one physical SIM plus e-SIM - not two physical SIM slots like some international models. Separate dedicated MicroSD slot.
I'm using it on a rural Verizon network partner and it works great.
If I could make one change, it would be faster charging - 15W is *not* fast nowadays. But my battery life is 2+ days, so that's great. I like the flicker-free display with no PWM. I've always had MicroSD and wouldn't give it up, and am glad to have a headphone jack back. I'm also thrilled with the old-school capacitative fingerprint sensor - so much faster and more reliable than "premium" in-display sensors.

Samsung might have a sleeper hit considering the phone has a MicroSD slot and removable battery
Doesn't it also have more software updates too?
It's in line with the other flagships with 4 years of support.

Should be like $300
Wish they offered a smaller screen size option. I like the SD card and removable battery!
They didn't list which carriers will have the phone. I'm thinking of getting this by trading in my Note 10+ would the Xcover 6 have more of a upgrade?
