There is not reason why you cannot bring a power bank in your bag, no reason why you cannot bring a passport HDD in your bag.
I bet you have a battery charger in your bag in case you need to charge the replaced battery. Don't be hypocrite teacher!

You think your battery might be old already - no problem, buy a new OEM battery, or even extended ones if you need more.
Might be getting my wife the S7 Edge because of the high 98 hour rating - still other tech sites are saying they have lower results with their testing. Holding off probably a week or two till I see solid results.

I just don't get the insatious WANT to upgrade to a few extra things they will likely never use. If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

Currently I'm using note 4 & I read a lot of bad comments concerning battery & camera & a lot of lags but I didn't face anything of this! it depends of the device manufacturing itself not a global issue!
But the updates may have global issues

Also alot of complaints about lag everywhere, sound is lower (especially in games), fingerprint scanner acts up, FPS is lower in games, split screen not showing recently used apps to select.
That's a bit too much for me so I'm skipping this one for awhile.

If the Note 6 can have 4000mAh, with more efficient power management, I'll be happy for 8 to 12 months before the sealed battery would start lowering noticable lower power holds.
I would guess Samsung should always base their battery capacities and power management capabilities with those with the highest demands on LTE. It should be a gold standard for any manufacturers to consider.
