+[* black] iPad Mini 3 Repairability: ***2 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.
