I bought bought a Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime as a replacement for my
Samsung Galaxy S3 (which I think is running Android 4, as Samsung
refused to provide upgrades on the grounds the phone wasn't capable of
running later versions of Android) where the back was removable as it
had to be as the phone is packaged without the battery installed, so the
back has to be removed to insert the battery and the sim card. Also I've
never had a Samsung phone where the back was not removable, because like
the one I have now, all my previous Samsungs were distributed in the
retail stores with the battery and sim card not installed in the phone.
The only limitation on the battery not being replaceable is the stores
that specialize in selling batteries not having one to fit the phone.
regards,
Steve
