The Samsung Galaxy Buds earn a 6 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair):
-
External assemblies are held together with clips instead of glue, making for a mostly non-destructive entry process.
-
Disassembly can be accomplished with common prying tools and a Phillips screwdriver.
-
The earbuds use coin-cell batteries that are relatively easy to find online for future replacements.
-
The charging case battery is easier to replace, but will most likely be more difficult to source.
-
Adhesive is used to keep many of the internal components together, though it is not excessive and can be reused for reassembly.
-
After opening, careful prying is required to separate some adhered components without tearing fragile cables.
-
Some cables in the charging case are soldered directly to the motherboard instead of utilizing contact pads or board connectors.
