| [* black] Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini Repairability Score: ***5 out of 10*** (10 is easiest to repair). | |
| [* green] The battery is incredibly easy to remove and replace. | |
| - | [* yellow] The display is now one of the first components out, making its replacement a little faster. However, it is held in with a significant amount of adhesive and requires very careful and persistent prying as well as a considerable amount of heat to remove without cracking the glass or cutting cables. |
