What's worse than removing a glued-down Note battery? Removing two of them ... at the same time.

Luckily we've got our adhesive remover handy. A few squirts, some patience, and a little persuasion from a pair of suction cups helps us safely remove both batteries without breaking too much of a sweat.

By this point, it feels inevitable that Samsung batteries will always be glued in like this, but we're not ready to give up hope yet. Samsung, if you're listening, there's a better way. (And prior to that, there was an even better-er way.)

These Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra juice packs weigh in at 16.69 and 17.46 watt-hours, respectively.

Both beat the 15.04 Wh pack in the iPhone 11 Pro Max, but fall behind the 19.30 Wh monster in the S20 Ultra—which didn't have to make room for a stylus, therefore moar battery.
