    B-b-but everyone said it’s impossible to make batteries removable, devices will just die in seconds from the first spec of dust!

          And an IR blaster. And a proper status and notification LED. And an SD card slot.

          Companies really lost the way.

            I still can’t believe how quickly they went from top tier tech in the S5, to just copying Apple’s slab with the s6.

    Great to see this feature coming back, now do this for a phone and add back removable SD card.

    Still haven’t found a use for a non e-ink tablet…

    Last time I touched a Samsung Galaxy Tab Active (also rugged) it had removable batteries too (And could run on power without battery connected). Isn’t that standard for rugged tabs?

      I mean, to be fair to the headline, it does say most [unqualified] Android tablets, not all tablets or just rugged tablets. Maybe a tiny bit misleading but not outright false either.
