A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Th Galaxy S5 and the Active versions before it were waterproof and had a removable back to get to the replaceable battery pack.

As an added bonus, the back had a rough, soft plastic surface so you could actually hold onto it without a case.

It was early in wireless charging, but the back could be replaced with one that haf the charging coil.
