  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Repairability Score: 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair).

  • Once the rear case is off, most components can be individually replaced without removing any other parts.

  • The front glass and LCD can be replaced separately, thereby reducing the cost of fixing your Note should you drop it onto concrete in just the right way.

  • All screws are Phillips #0, and there are only five different length screws.

  • Components are modular. The absence of complicated ribbon cables makes replacing individual components easy.

  • The rear case is held on by a lot of clips and a couple screws. There is no adhesive, but the clips can be tricky to dislodge properly.

  • In order to remove the battery, you first have to disconnect four cables and some tape.

  • The inner frame and some other components are held in with more adhesive than we feel is necessary.
