And lack of micro USB...... Isn't it mandatory within EU? Or at least they should provide some adapter.
With another battery, swap and reboot with in 1-2 minutes I have 100% juice back and I don't have to prepare a large pocket and tailing some extra power tank and can't move the device freely.

For your statement for battery, I'm afraid it's not true. current Lithium ion battery the charge lifecycle is less than 3000 times, when you get 500 charges you will lose about 30% capacity. With your usage with portable charger, assume you change twice a day, your battery will be 70% after 8 month's use. Unless it uses another kind of metal ion which as far as I can tell, has not been commercialised in any manufacturers.
