Searching for phone, up to €200 - "Non-removable battery", all of them? Really???

    So, I've been looking for a phone for my other half. Android 7, SD card slot, decent camera, up to €200.

    Light usage, really: phone, texting, messaging, internet, sat nav, no gaming.

    After wading through countless options on Amazon, I took a closer look at four phones. Closer look meaning that I looked up the specs on gsmarena.com (Amazon is so useless in this regard). The phones are: Huawei P8 Lite, Huawei Honor 5X, HTC Desire 650, Sony Xperia L1.

    ALL have a non-removable battery! Sorry, I'm not buying.

    I have spent close to two hours getting this far. If any of you out there know of a phone with changeable battery that fits the bill... please, let me know!

    You should be able to get an LG V10 for close to that price.

    LG K8 fits the bill though... All LGs I looked at so far have removable batteries. Thanks for the pointer!
