  • Does it go back together and still work? Indeed it does. That's a good sign. Stay tuned for a video with proof of life, and then we'll tear it down all over again.

  • Our repairability scoring model isn't well-calibrated for the Playdate (although we'll give it a go). It exists in a category all its own, and, like the device itself, we dug in mostly for fun.

  • As you can likely tell, however, getting inside and getting some parts out isn't too painful.

  • Speaking of parts: Panic developed this little gadget in collaboration with Teenage Engineering. Hey, we know them!
