|---|---|
| + | [* black] Nexus 4 Repairability Score: ***7 out of 10*** (10 is easiest to repair). |
| + | [* green] Removing the back cover requires nothing more than a common screwdriver, a plastic opening tool, and some patience. |
| + | [* green] The entire device only contains four different length screws—all common screw types—for a total of only 15 screws. |
| + | [* green] Once the back cover and inner frame are removed, pressure contacts make all of the inner components a breeze to replace. |
| + | [* red] The battery is stuck to the frame with a lot of adhesive, so removing it without puncturing the battery can be difficult. |
| + | [* red] The glass is fused to both the display and the display frame. So don't crack the glass unless you're good with a heat gun, or you're fond of replacing the glass, display, and frame together ($$$). |
