Unremovable battery is kind of a big no for me.

What is going to happen when the battery start to lose its efficacity? I'm going to have to open it like this?

I think I better wait for the next model.

This battery looks easily replacable actually. Yeah you're going to have to open it up, but it has a simple connector and looks like it's not even glued in (although it's a bit hard to tell). This is leaps and bounds over battery replaceability in most modern phones and tablets and no worse than the 3DS.

This was never going to have a gamepadstyle upgradable battery. They put the biggest battery in there they could fit, while maintaining a sleek formfactor.

You can have a replaceable battery and have a sleek formfactor. A lot of phones have replaceable batteries.
