          A bit of a hassle, but possible. Another point why a card memory expansion is needed.

                                        Have anyone seen Galaxy A3 & A5 (2016 Edition)? Its design is using the same design language of S6. Glass back and unremovable battery. Probably no sd slot too. Now I see what Samsung planned for S7. Lower your expectation guys.
