	[title] Final thoughts
	[* black] Samsung's Galaxy S21 Ultra earns a *X out of 10* on our repairability scale (10 is easiest to repair):
-	[* green] All the fasteners are identical Phillips screws in size and length, ~~and only require one driver, which simplifies~~ the repair process.
+	[* green] All the important fasteners are identical Phillips screws in size and length, simplifying the repair process.
	[* yellow] Many components are modular and independently replaceable, but the missing modular display cable and polycarbonate rear panel from the regular S21 are a step backward.
-	[* red] The rear panel is glued down and difficult to remove, even more so thanks to the new ~~notch~~ around the camera bump's edge.
+	[* red] The rear panel is glued down and difficult to remove, even more so thanks to the new ridge around the camera bump's edge.
	[* red] The battery and display continue to be difficult repairs, as both components are held down with some serious adhesive, and require a fair bit of disassembly to get to.
