  • Last year, the HTC-built Pixel XL showed us a novel way to remove an adhered battery—a perforated outer label let you pull the battery out of its shell, then easily peel off the rest of the label.

  • This year, it seems LG's industrial design doesn't include any provisions for easily removing the battery. (RIP, ye olde LG.)

  • This battery holds 13.6 Wh (3520 mAh at 3.85 V), slightly more than last year's 13.28 Wh.

  • That's roughly on-par with the 13.48 Wh power pack in Samsung's Galaxy S8+, and considerably more than the 10.28 Wh the iPhone 8 Plus manages to get away with.
