Removable battery is #1. My old Galaxy S3 (not even my first phone-yes I’m old) has absolutely godawful battery life but I had I think 4 total batteries around to make sure I could always have it even on a heavy use day. That sucked, but at least it was doable with a really easy process (peel off plastic back, pull out and swap battery, snap the backplate back on).
I keep an old phone around and sometimes use it to play like a video for my cats to watch if they’re laying on my bed when I’m not in there. But it has to stay plugged in because it loses the first 20% in about 15 minutes.
And that phone in particular (a pixel 2) is particularly a pain to replace the battery in the first place.
