With this iPad Mini in pieces, we'll conclude our teardown! What did we learn?

The iPad Mini continues to be (mostly) its own entity—not quite a shrunken down iPad, nor a miniature iPad Air.

After a number of conflicting experiences ultimately leading up to this Mini's glued-in battery, we're officially not optimistic anymore about seeing adhesive pull tabs for iPad batteries.

That said, it's time to give this iPad a repairability score!
