Is there an example of a waterproof phone with replaceable battery?
The 2014 Samsung Galaxy S5 had a removable battery and IP67 rating.
Ok so it’s an option, nice.
Not that I'm aware of, but I've lost 0 phones to water and many phones to failing batteries, so I'll take that trade.
All recent Galaxy Xcover phones have both an IP rating and removable batteries.
I have Samsungs Xcover 5. It is IP68, and very user servicable. Toolless battery replacement.
