I'm the other way around, I absolutely do not care about charging speed at all.
My phone is on the charger at night. If it charges in less than 6 hours or so, I literally wouldn't notice a difference ever. Battery always lasts for at least a day.
For me it really depends on what i use it for. A long day using GPS navigation or some times you have more phonecalls than others. Some times I don't have a speaker with me and just play music over the phone.
Not having to think of batteri any more, no matter how much i use it, and even not having to plug it in every night is a real relief for me.
Fast charging is bad for the battery though.
and making them replaceable would be even more practical than making them charge faster
Maybe yeah! most of my phones "though the ages" have died because either the screen broke, the charging port broke, or buttons fell off. From what i understand, this works because there are multiple batteries charging at the same time? I have not noticed any substantial battery performance loss during the two years i've had it. And even so, it only takes 15 minutes for a full charge, so I am still hooked!

That shouldn't make a big difference in charge speed because it doesn't change the ratio between capacity and input power. The difference is likely the silicon anode batteries Krudler mentioned; they're not as easily damaged by fast charge rates as the graphite anodes used in most Li-ion batteries.
The newer battery technology (silicon versus graphite anodes) has the potential for massive improvements
We are currently in the early adopting phase, where companies have finally gotten this technology usable. All the early adopters are going to be crying in the next couple years as their batteries end up smoking and in the garbage
I cannot wait until this technology smooths out and a couple hundred million people do the testing
It depends on the composition of the battery. The faster you charge the worse it is on the battery.
