Back then (15 or so years ago) we had back covers you could slide off the main body and had internal access to the battery, SIM card, SD-Card
And if it means to have a bit bulkier devices so be it, perhaps it will be bulky enough to get back the headphone jack.
It has been done more recently to, inclucing water resistance. E.g. Samsung had their flagship Samsung Galaxy S5 series phone with removable battery in 2014.
It also had an IR blaster so you could just put to control TV's and other tech.
Headphone jack
Swappable battery
Expandable memory
IR blaster
It was basically the perfect phone
