[* black] Fire HD 6 Repairability Score: ***8 out of 10*** (10 is easiest to repair).
[* green] The rear case is very easy to open, granting trouble-free access to the internals.
- [* green] All the fasteners found inside are Phillips #0 screws—one non-proprietary screwdriver is all you need.
+ [* green] All the fasteners found inside are T5 Torx screws—one non-proprietary screwdriver is all you need.
[* green] Simplistic design and limited functionality means fewer components and less headache for disassembly.
- [* yellow] A decent amount of adhesive is used on the battery and motherboard, meaning some prying and gentle working is required for disassembly.
+ [* yellow] Battery adhesive is much stronger than necessary, which makes disassembly hazardous.
[* red] The glass panel is fused to the front plastic frame, meaning a heat gun is required for replacing cracked glass (or you have to replace both components together).
