The Magic Leap One earns a 3 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair):

The speakers are easy to remove and replace with just a single screwdriver.

The threaded fasteners are all of the standard Torx and Phillips variety.

Disassembly is mostly nondestructive—on paper, anyway. With this much glue on this many fragile components, you’d better have buckets of patience and a very steady hand.

The battery is only replaceable if you’re willing to remove the motherboard and tiptoe your way past several intense glue barriers.

There is no upgrade path for any of the optics or processor—slightly disappointing on a $2,300 piece of gear.
