| [title] Final Thoughts | |
| [* black] The iPad Pro 11" earns a ***3 out of 10*** on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair): | |
| [* green] The USB-C port is modular and can be independently replaced. | |
| + | [* green] The lack of a physical home button eliminates a common failure point and may simplify repairs. |
| [* yellow] The battery is secured with both easier-to-remove stretch-release tabs ''and'' conventional, non-removable adhesive. | |
| - | [* yellow] The LCD and front panel glass are fused together. This slightly simplifies the opening procedure. |
| - | [* red] The fused front panel increases the cost of screen repair, and the risk of damaging the LCD when opening. |
| + | [* yellow] The LCD and front panel glass are fused together—simplifying the opening procedure, but increasing the cost of repair. |
| [* red] Gobs of adhesive hold most everything in place, making all repairs more difficult. |
