| [title] Reparability Score | |
| - | [* black] ***Mac mini M2 Reparability Score:*** 6 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair) |
| - | [* green] No tough adhesive holds the M2 Mac mini or its components hostage. |
| - | [* green] Use of a few common tools, disassembly is straight-forward. |
| - | [* green] The disassembly does not differ significantly from the M1 mini, which makes many repairs familiar. |
| - | [* yellow] Apple's poor thermal paste job might prove to be a problem later on. |
| - | [* red] All I/O ports are soldered directly to the logic board. If one breaks then the whole board needs to be replaced. |
| - | [* red] Upgrading components like storage or memory are almost impossible due to the integration with the processor. |
| - | [* red] The CPU and storage are both soldered to the logic board and not user-upgradeable. |
