    Battery isn't removable and the back is glass? Doesn't make much sense to me to make a fragile thing even harder to keep safe. I dropped my phone only 10 days after purchase to find that the back can and will shatter! Really the back of the phone shatters? I do love the new camera. And I like a lit of the updates but it's hard to get use to some software changes. And what's up with the change in home buttons? I like the one that went back. It's gone! But when it's time to upgrade, it's still my first choice...Maybe because I'm a creature of habit.
