A colleague shared a contact and it came with a photo of a woman in a bikini

I’m pretty new to Redditing and am on mobile so please excuse errors and basic bad form. And I’m not sure if this goes here.

He obviously knows the person he’s recommending quite well as the contact came with her photo (in a bikini posing on some rocks with crashing waves in the background) attached.

He didn’t actually deliberately send me the pic, it’s obviously the image that is assigned to her in his phone.

Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
