Samsung's Galaxy Fold earns a 2 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair):
-
A single Phillips driver takes care of all the screws.
-
Many components are modular and can be replaced independently.
-
The mechanics involved in the fold are likely to wear over time, causing stress to hinges and display, necessitating eventual replacement.
-
The fragility of the main display means you'll almost certainly be replacing it before long—a pricey repair.
-
Battery replacements are possible, but unnecessarily difficult—solvents help, but risk damage to the display supports.
-
Glued-down glass both front and back means greater risk of breakage, and makes repairs difficult to start.
