How do I replace the battery on my Galaxy S6?

[cco127]

So the issue im concerned about is getting the battery replaced in the S6 seeing as how it has a non removable battery. Like every battery in every phone/car/toy, they have a life expediency, and will eventually at some point down the road after numerous recharges, the battery will  no longer hold a solid charge and the only solution to fix this is to replace the battery.

                  now I am your normal run of the mill 9-5 blue collar working guy, I simply cant afford to buy a new phone every year. I am financially forced to ride my 2 year contact out until my upgrade time comes, sometimes i even need to wait longer before i can upgrade. And like every phone i have previously owned, after about a year and a half of good solid use of the phone, the battery simply stops holding a good charge and i have to buy a new battery. This has never been an issue since all my previous phone's have had a removable battery.

So what im concerned about is when the inevitable comes to pass and my battery no longer holds a charge. How am i to go about getting it replaced. Is this something warranty will cover a year and a half 2 years down the road, or will i have to pay out of pocket for a new battery. If thats the case then will it void my warranty if i open the phone up my self and change it without it breaking my warranty, or will i be able to send it off to get it replaced.

This is my only concern about getting the S6.

Im just trying to think long term down the road from now.

Samsung will replace it for $45.  You have to send it to them to do.
