| + | [* black] iPad Mini Retina Display Repairability: 1 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair). |
| [* green] The LCD and glass are not fused together and can be replaced independently. | |
| [* green] The battery is not soldered to the logic board or other components. | |
| [* red] Copious amounts of adhesive hold many components in place—front glass, battery, front camera, back camera, ribbon cables—making repair extremely difficult. | |
| [* red] The Lightning connector is soldered to the logic board, so don't bend its pins. | |
| [* red] Removing the home button is now a much more difficult job. If you want to keep Touch ID functionality after a screen replacement, you'll have to transfer the home button to the new front panel. |
