+ | [* black] The Pixel 3a earns a ***7 out of 10*** on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair): |
---|---|
+ | [* green] Most components are modular and can be easily replaced once the display assembly is removed. |
+ | [* green] Repair-friendly stretch-release adhesive secures the battery. |
+ | [* green] The only screws are standard T3 Torx fasteners. |
+ | [* yellow] The display comes off first, but is thin and poorly supported. Foam adhesive makes the opening process relatively easy. |
+ | [* yellow] Lack of ingress protection makes for an easy opening procedure, but means the device is more likely to need repair over its lifetime. |
+ | [* red] The myriad long, thin ribbon cables connecting the internal componentry can be obnoxious to work around, and are easy to accidentally tear. |
